My most recent design! This Cockchafer a.k.a. May Bug was folded from a 60*60 cm square of Thai unryu tissue paper.
I have been working on this design for a long time, and it is definitely my most complex model. I found the folding process of this to be very tiresome and strenuous. The appendages get thinned to a 64 grid and the body is expanded. I'm glad with the final product, and it was worth the hours of effort. The layers really piled up thick due to thinning the 32 grid. The 24 grid is more conducive to my style and process of insect design, and I think that I will work from that grid in the future. I'm going to take a break from designing insects and using box pleating, it's time to push my efforts further into new design techniques!
Whoever sees this, let me know what you think!
" Elizabeth " was created for the " Age of Elegance " group.
I chose a cut and paste technique ..Oh what fun I had sculpting the hat with tissue paper and Pearlex... Not mention all the bits and pieces of doilies, flowers and embellishments.
" Dancing Spring's " was created for the Age of Elegance" she is #2/2 dolls.
This is Springs evolutionary journey into the season.... Quite a change from the first one I made... However we all look alittle older when we wake up in the morning ..Don't we!!! ( Ha Ha) Now she looks like a new young woman and ready to take on the garden world.. (Hee Hee ) Wish it was that easy for a make-over.
I drew up a flat paper doll template and started to experiment with body positions..Her body and arms were made separately. I had this lovely yellow tissue paper and cut out the larger flowers then played with them until ..." Tah Dah !!! ... Of course I couldn't resist giving her a sunbeam necklace!!!
This is a handmade greeting card I made with squares cut from a watercolor I had done and pieces of torn tissue paper I had dyed with acrylic inks. Yes, this is one thing I did with the dyed tissue paper you became acquainted with in 365 Days in Colour.
I created dozens of these cards (blank inside) over several years and sold them. This one was done in 2002. I didn't realize I had any of them left!

I love making these tissue paper flowers - you can't quite tell from the photo, but they're kind of huge and blousy and crazily 3-d on the front of a card. The only downside is finding an envelope for them...

..... here is the finished surprise birthday cake for my friend.
The colours don't look quite as nice here as they do in real life as it's a rather dull day for photography. The cake is actually iced in Renshaw's Shell Pink fondant which is a really pretty palest of pinks.
Madeira cake filled with raspberry buttercream and fondant iced. All decorations are edible and made of mexican paste.

I'm just off now to Maureen's birthday lunch (with cake!) and will catch up with you all later ...... and hopefully let you know the birthday girl's reaction!

Origami model by the Australian designer Gareth Louis folded by me
Paper: about 50x50cm tissuepaper glued together with MCglue, which was also used during the final shaping.

Melusina dimensions: 3" x 6" x 2"
Materials: Silver wire, acid-free tissue paper, polymer clay
Melusina surfaces briefly every seven years as a beautiful woman or as a serpent, holding a small golden key in her mouth. Whoever takes the key from her will set her free and may claim her as his bride.
"The next morning the lover returned and followed the seductively sweet song that sounded toward him. Finding her, he saw that she now had wings. Her snake's body was speckled green and ended with a dragon's tail. But Melusina's eyes and face emanated such beauty, and her mouth was so seductive, that he was overcome by desire, and he again gave her three kisses. She quivered with lust and desire, flapping her wings about his head."
From: Ludwig Bechstein, "Melusine," Deutsches Sagenbuch (Meersburg and Leipzig: F. W. Hendel Verlag), 1930

Yay I am so excited to finally have all the pieces to put together my new packaging. I just love it and got to show it off for the first time today.

"Atas" meaning up, upper, above, on top. It's a local slang when you say, "Wah, so atas man..." Meaning it is a very high class, expensive place.
This is a collage made by sticking down lots of bits of coloured tissue paper with watered down PVA glue.
Coloured tissue and glue on card, then drawn into with pen and a little watercolour.
The vibrant and delicate petals of this Rock Rose Plant resemble crumpled tissue. They don’t last more than a day so I was lucky to get this shot.
Thanks for viewing :)
Detail of the top left hand corner. The gel medium celtic stencil can be seen here, plus collage elements including tissue paper.
