Before taking a look at more of his work lets take a look at Natrop’s background.   Natrop recieved his BFA in Painting at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a merit scholarship.  Since then he’s been featured at a multitude of galleries and has been invited as a guest lecturer to the School of Art and the University of Tennessee.  Not to mention the Vincent Prince Art Museum.  Natrop’s work features installations of fibrious paper cut outs that immediatly give the feeling of soft fabrics and spiderwebs.

Not of all his work consists of these paper cut out installations.  His work encompasses a multitude of forms and the paper cutouts can easily become static, wall-mounted pieces of art.
