What do you see?

Post by Gerardo »

I haven't seen a thread like this so I thought I started it.

Creators can sometimes be unsure if others see what we see in the folds of our ideas. In those ocassions it helps to ask them what do they see.

I hope other creators use this thread when they feel they need to.

I'll start with something I recently folded:

So what do you see?

I see a coastline, of an island maybe, with a mountain or tree on the left side.

My first impression (before reading the previous comments) was an upside-down sailboat's hull, or maybe an upside-down surfboard.

Thank you guys.

Do others see the same as NeverCeaseToCrease and dinogami? Do you see what Kabuntan sees? Or do you see something totally different?

Based on the chosen color my first impression was the same as the one from NeverCeaseToCrease:

An island with a mountain.

Butterfly.

Second look also makes me think of a barely-open mouth sporting a seriously wild mustache and goatee, but im sticking with my original interpretation.
