"You need to come back now." Fearful that something was terribly wrong, I ran back as fast as I could. I rounded the corner of my tent, gasping for air, but I wasn't met with the doom of my imagination... instead I was met by the coordinator of the show and a photographer?I was chosen as 1 of the top 4 artists for Best In Show!!! The jurors of the Octagon Arts Festival chose me out of around 100 other artists. I was completely taken by surprise. So much so that I actually had to go back and ask the coordinator to explain to me again what I had won.
I couldn't be more grateful. My husband, Mother-in-law, and kids have been so supportive of me and there is no way that I could do what I do without them.Here's to many more opportunities to keep doing what I absolutely love and sharing it with the world.Lesson Learned: You never know when it'll be your time to shine. Always be ready.@jewelstarzart #letyourlightshine #paperdecor #papercreations #paperengineering #paperarts #paperaddict #paperartist #handcutpaper #artaward #octagonartsfestival #uniqueart #alwaysbeready #littlesurprises #awardwinner #andtheawardgoesto

Had a great weekend of art shows at @artonthelake and the @octagon_arts festival.Despite the rain, it was still an amazing time. I'm truly inspired to create even more unique one-of-a-kind art pieces. I was so encouraged and am thankful for everyone that I met. You'll definitely be seeing me at more shows in the future.

Finished with the ladies of spring / summer!I really enjoyed coming up with different types of abstract hair, while focusing on not adding in all the details. Now I'm just playing around with ways to bring them together.What do you think? Should I go with a bold background color or something softer? I'd love to hear from you. Tell me in the comments below.#papercutart #springinspo #JewelStarz #handcutpaperart #ladyboss #paperartist #avantgardehair #redheadbeauty #bluehairedgirl #blackhairflair #abstractpaperart #abstractcreations #dailypapercut #girlsofsummer

"Lady number three inspired by the sea. With coral gems in her hair she doesn't mind if you stare." I kinda feel like she needs a name. I'd love to know what you'd call her?#dailypapercut #avantgardehair #papercutart #paperartwork #jellyfishpeople #oceaninspired #abstractwoman #crazyhairstyle #coralcharm #

Fiery, shimmery, wavy hair the color of crimson cherries. All heads turn her way when she comes into view.#dailypapercut #papercutart #redheadbeauty #redheadedprincess #fieryred #handcutpaper #abstractwoman #popsofcolor #thelittlemermaid #JewelStarz

I've been experimenting with abstract people and wildly styled hair. Also working on throwing in some pops of color. There are two more of these paper cut art ladies to come in the next few days.
I'd love to know how would you describe this character?#papercuttingart #avantgardehair #wildhairdontcare #birdsnesthair #popsofcolor #dailypapercut #randomart #abstractwoman #JewelStarz
