Papercuttings

After researching, I responded to the style of type and patterns in the form of paper cuttings. I selected the obvious words and phrases that represent the 60s decade. To begin with, I prefer to use layout paper, which is thin making it easier to cut for a more precise and neater outcome, and is slightly transparent to help in transferring and developing designs. Planning is involved in this technique, you need to be aware of the negatives in the designs- which pieces will be removed. And if all the positives are connected- this can be difficult to see if you have a complex design.
