Two shows opened this month at the Cape Cod Museum of Art in Dennis.
âPaper Talks: The Life of Miroslawa Pissarenko artist, horticulturist, teacher and friendâ will be on view through April 4.

She told this to her good friend Peter Michael Martin as she created Polish paper cuttings called wycniaki in her own intricate style, using only a pair of cuticle scissors. On Cape Cod Ms. Pissarenko is remembered for her paper cut-decorated eggs, which she demonstrated and taught to children in the schools and libraries. But that was just one example of her artistic touch.
