A nice little coincidence this morning, as I was listening to the new Polypunk mix I came across the work of Su Blackwell. Blackwell is a British artist who works mostly in books. She cuts paper from the pages of books to create amazing 3-D scenes (no, not necessarily depicting something from the book). She’s even incorporated lighting into the scenes to increase the beautiful dramatic effect she creates with paper. The Polypunk mix was so soft and instrumental and it just went perfectly with Blackwell’s work. Each intricate scene, with its subtle sense of movement and tension, telling me a story, while soft strings play in the background. That is pure Peanut Butter and Jelly magic right there, the two were meant for each other. PB&J magic, that’s not a phrase your familiar with? I thought it made sense anyway.

Wow. I want to grow up to do wonderful things like this. But now the bar has been set so high I am thinking I should give up crafting entirely.
