I will share the folding sequence for this Angel at Origami Groep Eindhoven's Christmas event on December 19, 2021. Further details will be available on: origamieindhoven.wixsite.com/fold.
Jolette (@origedoe) and Chinmay (@kagadmodya) have done an excellent job of growing the community and this would be Origami Groep Eindhoven's second Christmas event. My "odd-man-out" session would be in the midst of sessions by great masters like Yara Yagi (@yagiyara), Michal Kosmulski (@mkosmul), Ilan Garibi (@garibiilan), Oriol Esteve (@oriol.esteve.origami), Adriano Mariani (@adrymagic), Nick Robinson (@nickorigami), Pierre-Yves Gallard (@origallard), Riccardo Foschi, Paolo Bascetta and Jannie van Schuylenberg.
I would like to dedicate this design to my dear ori-brother Fabian (@fabianco11) - one of the greatest designers of minimal origami, in my opinion. And, he is a fine papermaker as well!
There is a little story that goes with this Angel's design. It had slipped my mind and when the phone trilled a reminder of the deadline, I was at a workshop and wouldn't be home for hours. What was I to do! A funny thought ran through and I picked up a sheet of paper. I silently spoke to that sheet that it would be a new Christmas Origami design by midnight and kept it away. That ridiculous ritual aside, that sheet of paper DID end up as the first draft of this angel. I had a hearty chuckle when I thought about this later. Uncle Pai always used to tell me that we should reduce self-chatter to be focused. Now, I think, maybe it is ok to allow the inner chatter to be vocal. Probably the silent dialogue began a process in the sub-conscious that revealed itself as this design.
I will see you all at the event and, hopefully, it would be fun to fold this little Christmas Angel. :)
