The art of silhouette (think of the famous images of film director Alfred Hitchock) has been around since the late 1750s and started in France. This art of detailed paper cutting in-profile is named for a French finance minister named Etienne de Silhouette. Before the advent of photographs, silhouette portraits were a popular, affordable way to reflect someone's appearance.
This weekend, stop by A Gal Named Cinda Lou, 20 N. State and meet Silhouette Artist Anne B. Wildman. Anne will be creating silhouettes for just $10 -- 2 silhouettes for the same person -- while you sit.
At just $10 a sitting, silhouettes are a wonderful small indulgence and will make a thoughtful Mother's Day gift.
Stop by A Gal Named Cinda Lou this Saturday, April 25th from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, April 26th from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
