#macromondays #paperart
This week i have been kinda late trying to participate the upcoming #macromondays theme. I just finished my Shot for the theme a few minutes ago. Took me a bit more time to get this origami paperboat done as i wanted a small one :) The tiny little fisherman already waited to get on the boat to go out for some fishing :)
Thank you for visits, comments and favs!

Both my son and I have a common hobby of paper crafting. He loves to do origami and I love to make something out of it to use in my paper crafts like scrapbooking and art journals, card making etc.
This is a envelope with the size of W:5 cm and H: 6,3 cm made by my son (origami folding) that I stamped and created a miniature letter inside of.
Happy MM

I was the eldest child in our family and for a few years the only child, so my mother spent all her time with me. Long before I went to school she taught me how to cut PAPER DOILIES.
Cutting paper doilies became my passion for months on end, I started with news paper, but a an uncle brought me loads of left over paper from the factory where he worked. The paper came in two colors, bright orang and soft mint. Our house and the houses of family and friends were decorated excessively with my orange and mint paper doilies.
My mother has always been very supportive of my artwork, many of my old aunts used to say she had better taught me some housework.

Ik was het oudste kind in ons gezin en een paar jaar het enige kind, mijn moeder bracht al haar tijd met mij door. Lang voordat ik naar school ging, leerde ze me papieren kleedjes knippen.
Het knippen van papierenkleedjes was maandenlang mijn passie, ik begon met krantenpapier, maar een oom bracht me een lading overgebleven papier uit de fabriek waar hij werkte. Ik kreeg twee kleuren paier: helder oranje en zacht mint. Ons huis en de huizen van familie en vrienden waren ruim versierd met mijn oranje en mint papieren kleedjes.
Mijn moeder heeft mijn kunst aktiiteiten altijd gestimuleerd., mijn oude tantes zeiden dat ze me beter wat huishoudelijk werk had kunnen bijbrengen.

Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!
For Macro Mondays.
I attempted some marbling of paint on paper this weekend, but wasn't very successful, so have resorted to the unimaginative paper coil.
"Interaction", my final and altered version of "Dance", folded with thinner paper. Almost all the different forms are 'moving', no escape possible ;-)
I found a nice quote by Jodi Aman for this tessellation: “Everyone we interact with becomes a part of us.”
For some reason this tessellation doesn't want to be flat, (it has a slight convex), I have to find a new place to store it ;-)
The other side "Rotor" looks like this.
Folded with 'Anett paper', named after a dear origami-friend from Germany, who provided me this paper. It is indeed lovely paper for this kind of tessellations, so I am grateful to her ;-)).
Because this paper is whitish, I decided to go for a black and white version.
Grid 1:64", hexagon about 33cm, finished model about 17cm.
If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".
With three more folds Miyuki Kawamura changed KiRara, her own creation, into another variation, which can be collapsed!! ;-))
Here you can see a different view of the middle phase.
Folded from 30 rectangles 7,5x15cm golden folie with star design.

Macro Mondays: Paper Art
Fun fact: On the day the theme was announced, I had dinner at my parents' with my mother's cousin and his wife. During the dinner, he started folding his paper napkin into a rose to amuse my niece and nephews. And here I was, with orange place mats perfectly matching the paper art I hadn't even begun to search!

Diese wurde seit ihrem Beginn bereits von mehr als 20 000 Besuchern begeistert wahrgenommen.

In Denmark, people with skills in paper cutting do things like this during Easter to send a secret message to friends... this one is from a very special person. You -as receiver- have to guess who made the paper cutting...
I last made one of these almost 40 years ago when I was a kid at school, so it's reassuring to know that the old grey matter still remembers a thing or two from school.
Not quite as skilful as the real Japanese art of Origami however this fits the brief perfectly for the Macro Mondays weekly theme of paper art.
"Did you hear that scratching sound too last night…….?
Seems this red skeleton hand is trying to get out……
Beware!!!!!!"
It reminds me of the beautiful song Red Right Hand by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. Perhaps you know it, if you watched the "Peaky Blinders"…. great series too!
Model: Spooky origami Hand Skeleton

There is a video tutorial by Jo Nakashima, if you want to fold it too.
Folded from a 20x20cm red wash paper, final size 6,5x6cm.

While folding another of my new pattern of my Block-tessellation serie I used thicker paper and because of that and the density of the pattern this bowl-shape arose ;-)
I found (independently) a variation of the "Wall" of Momotani, and I'm probably not the first one.
Folded from 21x21cm greenish Japanese paper, with some golden en silver dots in it.
I also made a color photo from the outside and the inside of my origami tessellation "bricks", where you can see these dots better.
I used a mirror to make this photo, so I could show you both the patterns as well the roundness of the bowl itself.
~~~Oh wow, now don't I look fancy in my new outfit!!!
Thanks, Marjan for folding me in this Year of the Dragon. I know I'm an oldie……..60 years ago I was designed. ))~~~~

Topview on this abstract Rose. It is a flat model. You make a nice birthday card with it ;-))
Why is it called 'Pureland Origami"? I found a nice explanation on WiKi:
""Pureland Origami is a style of origami invented by the British paper folder John Smith, that is limited to using only mountain and valley folds.
The aim of Pureland origami is to make origami easier for inexperienced folders and those who have impaired motor skills. This means that many, but not all, of the more complicated processes that are common in regular origami, are impossible; and so alternative manipulations have been developed to create similar effects.""
Model: Modular Pureland Origami Rose from four 1:2 Rectangles
Design: Jason Ku
Diagrams in the OrigamiUSA's online magazine, The Fold #15
I used 4 rectangles of tissue paper: three yellow ones for the rose and one green one for the leaves. All of them had the same size 7,5x15cm.
Final size: Rose 6x6cm
Definitely Dreaming 2/52 paper
I've done versions of this a few times before and will no doubt do it again as I always like the effect.
The background is a texture by Jai Johnson.
