[Origami] First Origami Talk ended and the second session is up now!

[Ali Bahmani]

Hi everyone!

So Last Sunday we enjoyed having Beth Johnson on our very first session of
Origami Talk and it was so much fun!

Beth showed us her studio, her favorite papers, How she organizes her model
and spoke about her design process:

*“**What I really like doing is designing with paper in hand. So I am not
someone who likes to sit down and sketch things out and I like to simply
play with paper in my hands**”*
-Beth Johnson

She also showed us some of her beautiful finished models, Including her new
gorgeous model Chipmunks! - so cute!

*The second session of origami talk is open for registration:*
The second session is already up and open for registration. We are going to
meet and chat with Noah Deledda next Sunday, who is an American artist
known for painting, sculpture and more. but not Origami!

He creates something unique out of an ordinary object, Aluminum Cans! He
Scratches, dents, and creases to make very intricate patterns on cans only
using his thumbs!

Please check his work on his website  and
Instagram .

Hi Gerardo,
I confirm. Heart model by Hiroshi Kumasaka published in Le Pli
(spring/summer 1995).
Heart shape stands in front of "white" background.
Colour behind. Fold square in half. Break in two top little corners. Then
align 2 corner to center (plane fold). Bring 2 parallel edges to center
mountain fold. Fold in half, heart shape on one side. Inside reverse fold
on the 2 hinge corners. Finished. (-:
It recently was subject to a modular variation in one of our online groups.

All the best,
