The Art of Origami

The Art of Origami Part 5


For my very last post i made a Birdwing Butterfly. About a few post ago i made a moth. What is different about this is that the Birdwing Buttefly from the moth, is that this butterfly has more detail. The authors describe the birdwing as "incredibly beautiful, geometric markings " (Lafosse, Alexander 101).  When i made this butterfly i have to be honest, this butterfly was the most complex piece i have made out of all of my previous creations. As i created the butterfly the authors recommended "using a black and indecent green duo washi for this model" (Lafosse Alexander 102).I used a plain black and white sided paper since i didn't have washi paper and also i didn't want to mess up on one of the more fancy papers i had. What made this difficult is that the large amount of detail it contains.   Although the outcome was very worth the amount of difficulty i caused.








Which is your favorite origami piece that I've made?
