Origami orchid

New origami orchid from the V Berty design. They are the only kind of orchids I can keep alive.

Origami square roses

Labor Day weekend was a good time to make more Naomiki Sato roses. Every time I make one I get mildly obsessed with these things.

Origami snail

It's been so humid here in NC I felt inspired to make a snail. #origami

Golden hour makes everything look good. #streetphotography

This is Silas, the one armed sifaka lemur. As a Tarheel I hate to promote anything at Duke, but the Lemur Center is really amazing and does great work.

Colorful origami stars

I can tell I'm just going to keep making lots of these. They are very satisfying. And Christmas is only 7 months away. #origami

A Voyage for Madmen by Peter Nichols. That one stuck with me a long time

Man, I love a brown-headed nuthatch. Weighs only 1/3 of an ounce but will just hangout 6 feet from me like he owns the place. #birds

Sculpture of deer with antlers caught

Saw the sculpture Beloved by Beth Cavener last weekend at the Mint Museum and I keep coming back to it. It holds tremendous tension and I may need to walk back over there and look at it again.

Square stairwell

One more for today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #Lines, because I love geometric themes. The stairwell at the Deutsches Museum housing a Foucault's pendulum.

dog in a doorway

For today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #Lines. A dog in a doorway on a rainy day in Puerto Rico.

It's called Trussia and was just featured in the GOC4 online convention. Working my way through some great models from that event.

The back of the model is pretty messy so I don't think so. But you could join a few on their backs and probably make a sort of kusudama

Origami flower finished flat

Origami flower finished 3D

Practicing a new #origami model tonight. You can finish it flat or 3 dimensional. Thoughts?

Going literal for #BlueSkyArtShow this week with tessellated earth from Badlands NP. #Earth

American Gothic upside down in spools of thread

Y'all, this is spools of thread! Blew my mind.

Seen today Rochester's Memorial Art Gallery. #art

Nothing says spring like a good stack of turtles.

Excellent job. I've crumpled and thrown away many a sheet on Sato's designs. Your version is beautiful.

This is straight trippy but really cool.

Excellent composition

Andrew Hudson. I got the diagram from an old Origami USA newsletter so it may be in their database.

We went out tonight to see Milos Forman's last Czech film at a local theater. At the end 2 ladies are like " I think we were supposed to be in theater 4". Like what kind of patient and curious person sits through 75 minutes of Czech New Wave before figuring this out?

Found in the wild.
