UPDATE: The winner of the giveaway is Ivonne! Congratulations and thanks to everyone for participating!
Oren Loloi is a paper-cutter based in Israel. He used to be a commercial artist in New York City. I love the story of how he became a paper-cutter. Oren specializes in Ketubah, a document that is considered an integral part of a traditional Jewish marriage. He has also created other types of works with paper, such as the beautiful blue Hamsa below, which he is giving away to a lucky reader today. For a chance to win this original piece, just leave a comment below. I will announce the winner on Monday, December 9, 2013.
Keep scrolling down to see more of Oren’s work. You can also visit his Website, Etsy shop and like his Facebook page for updates. This Hamsa measures about 7.5″ x 6.5″
