Hi everyone,

I'm really loving 'Paper & Form 2' by József Zsebe. It arrived yesterday
from Origami-Shop, and the designs just seem wonderful. They are all
fundamentally simple, while also presenting very pretty and expressive
subjects. The book is also presented in a way that encourages the
reader's own creativity, showing how similar folding sequences can result
in significantly different variants. The zebra and the tiger are really
cute examples of that, and also the bunch of birds at the start of the
book. But many of the models are organized to express that kind of
variability, and there's a lovely chapter in the back that talks about
variability and gives some beautiful examples of challenges for how to do
things like add an extra stripe to the zebra, and whatnot.

Definitely a real treasure! And Giang Dinh's comments and praise on the
back were really lovely too.

One special secret though -- there are two tiger variants in the book, and
if you only look at the table of contents (or the drawings of the finished
models) it seems like both have 4 stripes with the head as the main
difference, but it's not true! The 2nd tiger also has five stripes! (Sorry
if I'm spoiling a secret surprise.)

Very much looking forward to the rest of this book and to József's other
books.

Be well,
Zack
