Thomas Pitilli – Cut It Out

‘No Me Hables De Amor’

I’ve been having fun experimenting with some collage elements in my work recently. I always find it refreshing to introduce a new technique that I don’t know much about in order to breathe new life into the work. Here are a couple examples of some of the work I’ve been cooking up with that approach. Hope you dig it!

‘Winter Scarf’

I love the slight 3Dness that the collage is having on these pieces.
