Owen Gildersleeve, Illustrator, New York

Description

This detailed close-up image displays a striking layered paper art portrait created by illustrator Owen Gildersleeve. Vibrant cutout shapes in bold pink, bright orange, fiery red, and stark white overlap to form the distinct features of a bearded man in profile. Visible paper textures and crisp cut edges emphasize the tactile, handcrafted nature of the sculpture. A precision crafting scalpel rests on the white paper surface to the left of the composition. The flat lighting casts subtle, soft shadows between the stacked layers, creating depth and dimension.
