"In my paper studio I couldn’t be without my Excel Blades Fit Grip Craft Knife. The ultra-sharp blade holds its point really well and makes smooth, clean cuts. But the best part about this precision hobby knife is the contoured rubberized grip, which allows me to cut for hours without sore hands. Although green is usually my favorite color, for this tool I always choose pink, because it is easy to find amid the chaos on my messy workbench. In the clay studio, my favorite Excel tool is the Double Ended Knife, Stylus and Embossing Tool. It's really handy to flip back and forth end-to-end to get the exact tool I need while putting details into my ceramic sculptures."
Wendy is a member of the Guild of American Papercutters and International Online Art Collective. Her work is displayed in galleries in New York, Pennsylvania and Florida.
