In this phase you can see it better how many pre-folds had to be made. It took two days to do it.

This pre-folding does not apply to all origami models.

I made a kind of blue print. ;-))

 

If you want you still can make suggestions what it will be…….

For the Macro Mondays theme"Begins with the Letter P": Pre-creasing paper for folding.

When you fold with vellum, the creases becomes white lines. The vellum gets actually damaged and the risk it might tear is very big, so it is necessary to fold with great care.

 

HMM for everyone ;-)

For Macro Mondays. I was attempting to get a neatly made coil of paper, but found it more difficult than I anticipated. I squashed many and then found they unrolled too fast but I didn't want any paper clips to be seen. So something that should have been simple took several goes. I am trying to learn to be patient!

Happy birthday, my dear wife...!

[We'll play with a paper plane,

being so occuped with our paper problems...]

 

One night, I attempted to sketch my mother. I worked on the drawing for a while, focusing mainly on her eyes. For some reason, I could not capture that sense of watchful isolation that shielded her vision. Hence, I practiced on Ms. Angel Aquino's portrait instead. I knew then that if I get this portrait "right", I would be able to draw my mother's portrait...and I did.

 

This is actually the "Genesis" of most of the pieces on my SHADOWS series- a compressed charcoal study on a 90gsm smooth paper.

For some of my dear friends on Flickr, who don't fold and are curious of how the folding takes place, I decide to photograph some steps, to reveil "the secret", no just kidding ;-), it's really so nice to know you are interested.

First I cut out a hexagon out of a piece of paper, sometimes out of a square, sometimes out of a rectangle and then I start to make/fold the division of the grid that I need. This is somewhere in between......I still have to do a lot.

I used very thin paper with plenty of fiber, as you can see.... there is a very big one........ Because I wanted to see if I could tessellate this kind of paper...., always like a challenge........ to be continued.

 

The rolled paper is shot from above - it is on a tray table with a translucent top - the flash is below the table.
