You have the patience of a Saint. Is there a Ste-Corinne? Très créative! Félicitations.
October 27th, 2012  
Very creative and so well executed. A fav for me Corinne!
October 27th, 2012  
C'est magnifique Corinne! It's such intricate work. I love how you've collaged in waves of colour. +Fav!

@seattle a big thank Constance for the fav and the lovely comment ;)
October 27th, 2012  
@tanagerjohn hahaha! no there's no Ste Corinne, we used to celebrate "the Corinne" with the "Eric", I've heard that "Corinne" come from "Korin" or "Corin", greek muse of poetry...) Merci beaucoup pour le gentil commentaire, c'est une occupation qui m'apaise...un travail de patience... :)
October 27th, 2012  
@marieooi thanks Marie, i have no patience at all believe me! But the perspective of the final result helps me to be more patient....
October 27th, 2012  
Wow, these are incredible Corinne. Amazing what 365 teaches us about each other.
October 27th, 2012  
@seanoneill until yesterday it was a secret I kept ..... ;) Thanks Sean
October 27th, 2012  
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! I can't wait until I'm done with grad school and have time to lose myself in more arts and crafts! fantastic vision.
October 28th, 2012  
@lindseying thanks for the compliments ;) I studied law, but always dreamed, in a tiny corner of my mind, to do something with arts and creation....embroidery, sewing, cutting, drawing, .....one day may be .... ;)
I encourage you to do what makes you feel happy !!
October 28th, 2012  
Corinne, these are beautiful! What's the base material - a painted canvas? They are very mosaic-y.
October 28th, 2012  
@margonaut yes I first paint on a coton-canvas ( here just one color : turquoise) then I add my tinylittle stuff...making wavws of different colors... Thanks Margot :)
October 28th, 2012  
Wow! Amazing!! :) Quel travail ! respect ! :)
November 5th, 2012  
This is so cool......gorgeous art!
February 26th, 2014  
Wow! Incredible xx
February 27th, 2014  
The result is very cool, really wonderful art. This looks like it is very time consuming and that you really have to keep track of your cuttings.
February 27th, 2014  
Corinne, somehow I missed this when you posted it, but I am TRULY impressed! I read all your comments, and it sounds as if you do this almost as meditation, and the results are fantastic! You must work on it for a while, and then put it aside until inspiration or the need to work on it arises again...it really does look like mosaic work....beautiful!
February 28th, 2014  
@panthora Oh thank you so much Osia, I do this for years now, and it is starting to invade every room of the house, a friend of mine asked me lately if I will sell some someday as she will be very interested .....I was sooooo faltered because as you said it started like a personal thing...and im so happy to have such good feedback...very flattering ;)
February 28th, 2014  
@panthora Forget the "faltered" and please replace it by a "flattering" ;)
February 28th, 2014  
So completely awesome! I love this kind of stuff and you're so talented. I have a large box of paper that I've collected (most of it from Japan) that I use for similar types of projects. Once I had miniscule bits of paper that I used to cover an egg. I had to use tweezers and kinda drove myself crazy with that one :)
October 27th, 2014  
@kamen088 nice to meet somebody as crazy as I am ;) I love big pieces...so it's bigger and bigger...I've got problem for the storage now....
October 27th, 2014  
Bigger is better :) I'm working on a large piece right now and it's also driving me crazy, because while the piece is large, I'm still using tiny bits of things to fill it in. This one has bits of paper, beads and string. Fun and more fun. You should start selling your work, that will help with the storage problem!
October 27th, 2014  
@kamen088 i would love to see the result ! I use big canvas and stick paper cuts, glitters and add some dots everywhere... I can spend months on these canvas... I understand what you mean. My husband push me to sell it but I don't have the courage to face reaction of people, I consider it as minor hobby !.... May be one day....;)
October 28th, 2014  
I don't think you need to fear anyone's reaction. From what I can see your work is great. I really like the circular piece. I reminds me of a mandala.
