Paper Cutting by Julie Marabelle


"More than 20 hours of meticulous paper-cutting squashed into a little more than 2 minutes of film. This I hope shows the real skill and dedication involved in creating just one map by artist/illustrator Julie Marabelle. Hope you enjoy the film. You can buy prints of this map (and others) at http://www.famillesummerbelle.com. "
