Class Details

Sweet young girls bowing toward the heart they hold between them, a strip of paper tulips and hearts, a wee bird on a branch singing its heart out – just a sampling of the charming and whimsical papercuts Santa Fe artist Jone Hallmark has created. Her class on papercutting is designed to be simple and sweet. All you need is a favorite pair of sharp scissors for fine cutting and some paper.

At the beginning of class, Jone explains negative space, overlapping, and different folding styles. Start with single folds, then double folds and multi-folds as you use your scissors to “carve out” a few simple shapes. Jone shares her patterns to get you started, but she encourages everyone to create their own by drawing or even cutting free hand. Magic happens when you unfold your paper to its full size. There are always happy surprises!

By the end of class, we think you’ll understand why Jone is such a fan of this centuries old art. It’s certainly inexpensive and eminently portable!

This online class will be recorded and made available to class participants for 14 days after the class.

Class Materials

Please bring the following materials:

  • Printed handouts & cut templates (you will receive a PDF to print and cut ahead of time)
  • Sharp scissors with a decent point at the tip
  • Several pieces of lightweight, easy-to-fold paper. Printer paper is fine. Jone’s favorite is the thin paper from old dictionaries and encyclopedias
  • Pencil and eraser
  • Optional: craft knife with sharp blades

Instructor Bio

Santa Fe artist Jone Hallmark, who says of herself, “I tend to work in a two-inch square!”, has created her own little world of magical delights. Each tiny wonder – from the cleverest fox or hedgehog to a charming parade of flower-bearing young girls – is handcrafted from paper clay, wire, wood, and other tiny bits and pieces. Her sophisticated yet simple designs show the influence of both her father’s Scandinavian heritage and the intricate painted miniatures she collected when living in Switzerland. Her affinity for using small, ordinary objects comes from her mom, also a graphic designer and artist. She taught Jone that you can make just about anything you want instead of going to a store to buy it. Jone’s creative life started on the floor of her father’s studio, where she sat as a child surrounded by brushes, paints, and a treasure of paper. Her passion for design eventually led to work developing store displays, award-winning lines of decorated papers, and the beloved Bryce and Madeline stickers. One day, after twenty years of licensing her artwork for other people’s products, Jone realized that she needed to get back to basics and simplify. In that moment, her tiny little world was born. Now she spends her time teaching, drawing, painting, and making huge messes on every available flat surface. Visit Jone's Instagram: @jonehallmark
