Shape- papercuts vol.1- simple=better

We were told to pick our favourite fruit and make paper cuts from it. The 3 above were my favourite. My first a single segment- with a mosaic thing for the flesh. It took too long and looked over complicated. After this I decided to go as simple as possible- channeling Enzo Mari- the result is the middle one-and there was also a negative space alternative (which I'm not as keen on).

At the time the middle one seemed over simplified (I was wondering if it still looked like an orange) so I played around with composition and torn edges. It was very hard to get a smooth round edge with torn paper and I think the most simple comps were the most effective.

The one on the left came about by returning to the first approach-but simplifying it - I quite like it but wonder if it could be simplified/refined more? done from a different perspective?

One on the right came from seeing yellow paper and realising I'd only used orange. I think using the extra colour allowed me to simplify the forms. I quite like the results from playing around with lots of little bits- rather than big shapes but wonder whether they'd be better bigger- again- like the one on the left- different in some way- maybe in how the image is communicated.
