<div>
Max is a construction paper guy</div>
<div>
made of many scissor-cut pieces.</div>
<div>
The brown color on his head is a</div>
<div>
stack of three cut crowns. His legs</div>
<div>
are three cut pieces each. His body</div>
<div>
is an upsidedown T, one of Wil's</div>
<div>
signature body pieces. He sold out</div>
<div>
on the first day of our last Art Show.</div>
<div>
It seems he is not simply loved by </div>
<div>
kids, rather it is the kid in adults </div>
<div>
that most love him. Max is a perfect</div>
<div>
example of Wil's admiration for</div>
<div>
young, fun characters. He will soon</div>
<div>
be in Wil's website Store at 11x14" and 16x20" Giclee prints.<br />
As well, Max will be offered as a greeting card.</div>

Arnold is unaware that Helga is mad about him, since she always acts indifferent toward him. His blue cap blows off his head and lands on her rooftop before her eyes. She swoops it up and goes to her bedroom where she excitedly places the blue cap on her Arnold monument practically bringing it alive in her heart...

Though for Wil it's about color not paper. The paper seems his means to bring color to life; the more yellow paper stacked the more yellow it appears, and so on. From pale to bright, pastel to neon, smooth to textured, merely viewing just one of Wil's paper stacks is an eye-popping experience. Now picture many stacks each a foot to a foot and a half high, pretty much side by side on every surface in his good-sized bedroom, including the surface of his large drafting table as seen in the photos above. That is Wil's COLORAMA!</span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"></span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">All of Wil's stacks are not made of just one color, however. Many represent video and DVD characters from "the Wind in the Willows," "Little Bear," "Dora the Explorer," Dragon Tales," "Winnie the Pooh," "Pinocchio", Hey Arnold," "Rolie Polie Olie," "Blues clues" and more. If you know your characters, with a simple glance you'd be able to identify his character stacks by name. Take the colors of any character, Hey Arnold, for instance. Arnold would be easy to identify by the thin light blue section/layer of paper in the stack representing his hat; a bit thicker section of yellow would be his hair, and so forth. And yes, Wil typically starts a stack representing a character with the color of feet or shoes so that the stacked colors are in exact order that make up the character. No doubt I'll post more on this topic as it progresses...</span></div>The Cutout Kidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03212527254531184612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906025855125469832.post-87791369472367809452009-12-01T14:19:00.000-08:002010-01-18T16:26:00.209-08:00Scalloped Edges!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhzFW-QqZ2MBeQ0C-kWAknmCJcc8YAxIiOAN4g_0tnCR0z5hFQ5U5x9z-lh1KRSCiiqUTOs5-OOMowGSW2-KgqjFY34zFZ2tN8-PFTfC8ZyI5zxiUOEqbe9oDaU3WivazUpp1uWE40GkeS/s1600/IMG_0820.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 118px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410406719988400290" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhzFW-QqZ2MBeQ0C-kWAknmCJcc8YAxIiOAN4g_0tnCR0z5hFQ5U5x9z-lh1KRSCiiqUTOs5-OOMowGSW2-KgqjFY34zFZ2tN8-PFTfC8ZyI5zxiUOEqbe9oDaU3WivazUpp1uWE40GkeS/s200/IMG_0820.jpg" /></a><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Wil</span> has been having fun scissor-scalloping the edges of his Alphabet letters, hearts, circles, rectangles and other general pieces.
