Etsy & UPPERCASE: KateFete

​There's a lovely interview with Kate Slater on The Etsy Blog. In addition to her work as a childrens book illustrator, Kate has an Etsy shop featuring her collage and paper cut illustration called KateFete

My illustrations are made from a combination of collage and cut-outs. I usually suspend individual collaged pieces from wires which I then photograph to create the final image. It’s a rather bizarre process, but I gradually moved towards collage while I was at university and I’ve always loved making 3D pieces from wire so it seemed quite natural to combine the two. I hoard paper and have stacks and stacks of old magazines and insides of envelopes.
