Charles Burns: online silhouettist

All silhouette-cutting takes place online.

I’m Charles Burns. During the last twenty years I’ve been fortunate to cut portraits of the late Queen Elizabeth (three times) President Clinton, President Mandela, and a whole host of sporting and film celebrities.

You can now book a short, private sitting to have your own silhouettes cut over Zoom. I set aside a small number of days each month for online sittings. These can be reserved at a fraction of the cost for booking me to attend an in-person event.

Each sitting costs £60 and is long enough to cut silhouettes of up to two people as a pair of classic cameo portraits, or one person as a full-length silhouette. For families and groups, just book extra sittings. Booking two or more costs just £48 for each sitting (automatic discounts apply at checkout).

At the end of the day I mount all the silhouettes onto card and sign each one. The cards come backed with a stamped certificate of authenticity. I then post your silhouettes, free of charge, anywhere in the world. For added security you can add a tracked delivery service when you schedule your sitting.

Gift Vouchers and Extra Dates

To give a sitting to a friend, without choosing a date, use my Silhouette Gift Voucher. There are always plenty of dates to choose from.
