Anyone from Singapore

Post by iAm4free »

I've moved to Singapore and I'm wondering if anyone who does Origami is around in this country!

Thanks Cupcake for the intro. :D

There's quite a number of us here. My webpages provide links to other webpages of others in Singapore. There are some who are just starting their webpages and probably will take time to build up. Wolf is taking the lead to organise regular meetings in a central area where we can exchange ideas, show others our latest acquistion, help another over a difficult spot, teach the latest creation and hopefully someone can organise an exhibition this year.

Hi! So you must be Francis Ow! I always wanted to meet people who do Origami in real. Till this day I've been all alone and it would be a pleasure to meet you and wolf at the Singapore Meet-Up this weekend. I am looking forward to it. Would love to learn one of the cute little hearts you have created :)

:wink:

Yeah, I'm not Francis, although I am proud to say that myself and Francis had our first origami exhibition in Singapore around 1981.

I used to fold complicated models because during the 80s, not many people does that then. Now everyone does it so I revert to my original preference, that is, simple but effective models, the ones that is very easy to teach to begineers. My favourite models are flowers. I do a lot of other paper craft besides origami.

As far as I know, Francis is not on this forum, perhaps I can get him to come here.
