Mixed media collage with old origami paper and a highlighter.
This was actually fun to make. I needed a break from painting.
I'm still experimenting to see what kinda things I like to do in my art.

I know I said I'd post my origami paper collection last week but things got busy. Heh. Anyways, here it is plus some current pieces I've worked on.
My unit origami.
As I mentioned once, I build these as a form of self-care. I discovered as a child, the repetitive motions to make each unit is very therapeutic, and gives me a sense of control over something, however small, amid chaos or stressful situations. After completion, they give me a feeling of satisfaction seeing that my anxiety doesn't have to be self-destructive. But of course, I don't make them only when I'm down, I make them out of boredom too. They're a form of brain teasers, especially when I'm making a new variation.
This isn't even it's final form!
No, really, I got issues with hoarding various art supplies, paper is no exception. I have these three shoeboxes plus a metal cabinet filled with paper. But I have a legit excuse for so much. I live rural, so I can't afford to go into town all the time for art stuff, so I buy bulk from an office store that's the main supplier of stationery in my area. The next one is over an hour and a half away down the mountain!. Also buying bulk is cheaper. I get those wishing star papers and mini sized boxed papers for 50 cents each in a five pack. Buying individually, they're a dollar a piece. A lot of it I bought under $3, though the module kits and larger sized washi paper were $7.
My current favorite new papers are these Sanrio ones, as well Pokemon and Cardcaptor paper. These are hard to find at that store, as they're New Old Stock.

So…I folded a 6th origami Kakyoin. Yes, a 6th. But I think my shaping has improved since the first fold!
Paper was double tissue, gold on one side, green on the other. Did some editing to make the color changes look more pinkish instead of gold in the photos.
I’m hoping to be able to create more origami designs sometime in the future. I think Jolyne would be a lot of fun as an origami model in terms of what the shaping process might look like.
Featuring photos of the precreased sheet before collapsing the base this time.

When I was contacted by a client to make a box for their origami paper, I was ecstatic. My business started making origami cards and ornaments, and I have a huge stash of origami paper. So this request was very special to me.
Because they needed to get to the bottom of the box to get the sheets out, I suggested a modified clamshell box with open sides (sometimes referred to as a French Tray).
This was my very first clamshell box, so I spent a bunch of time researching, mocking up and learning before I made this final box. There were still some bumps in the road, but the final box is something I'm immensely proud of.
Thank you to my client for their trust and enthusiasm for this project!
Swipe through to see it from all angles. And if you'd like to commission your own custom box, remember you can use the contact form on my site or send me a DM. I'd love to make something special for you!
