Paper Portraits: Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn

in Your Masterpieces
Here are this week's portraits. I thought I didn't have enough females being represented. As always, let me know if you have any suggestions who you would like to see. I'm thinking about doing heroes/villians for next week. Any thoughts?

    Those are amazing! You can just cut them out, put the layers together, and they look just like that?
    This Siggy's for you Jeanette...another AWESOME movie!
    Samir: No, not again. I... why does it say paper jam when there is no paper jam? I swear to God, one of these days, I just kick this piece of **** out the window.
    Michael Bolton: You and me both, man. That thing is lucky I'm not armed.
    Samir: Piece of ****.

    Beautiful work!!! How do you import them into make the cut? I have never seen such a talent as yours. I ask again if you would contact me and tell me how to do them; any special software? Would love to be able to do my children and grandchildren. Thanks for sharing you wonderful abilities; love to look at them. ;-)

    Superman and Wonder woman; wish you could do them and put a couple of my family faces on them. My daughter would dress up as wonder woman when she was little(even got a video of her with a dress on; she spins around and turns into wonder woman). And my son in law is a superman fanatic as is one of my best guy friends. Oh, would love you if you could or would. Would you do it for a fee or teach me?

    Oh, wow, I love them as always. I don't care who you make but Bette Midler would be good as Maxine suggests. So would Bette Davis.

    Thanks everyone. The Audrey Hepburn portrait is my first attempt to making a silhouette as the lightest layer. This is why it looks a little different than my other portraits. This makes for extra work, but it allows the white of Audrey to stand out more from the background color. Also, I now can combine multiple portraits into a much larger frame. I'm really excited to try this technique on a group shot.

    I love the Hepburn one and would agree with Maxine that it is the best yet. I am glad you gave your explanation as to why it was different, I knew it was but couldn't figure out why

    I'm thinking about pairing up John Wayne with either Clint Eastwood or Steve McQueen.

    Oh no, I would rather see our Heath Ledger as he really was. Not as the joker.

    Calgal, I'm still working out everything to make the tutorials. I'm trying to make a process that requires the use of only free software. I uploaded a free Elvis file for anyone who wants to practice the technique. It is under the "Elvis & Prince" discussion.
