Nikki McClure


Maybe Nikki McClure's painstaking exacto-cut-out illustrations are no secret to everyone else but they pretty much hit me over the head yesterday as I was scouting out neat places to visit on my upcoming trip to San Francisco. I'm dazzled! Tongue-tied! There's really something about the graphic simplicity of her images coupled with the precision and detail in creating them that's really refereshing in this digital, edit>undo, 10-second-epic world we're working in these days . I particularly appreciate the interrelation of her subject matter and the labour-intensive way she works.
