Hello everybody,

this is my own design.

Image

After folding 'Tired' and 'Very tired' the idea of a sleeping man using the same folding filosofy came to my mind. Designing this model was easy. It is also a 3x1 rectangle (22x66 cm). The key to a succeful model is the shaping part. I used wet folding techniques to shape the pillow and blanquets trying to make them look like real fabric. The paper is blue Geltex glued to orange silk

Good folds,

Picaruelo - your work is absolutely amazing and breathtaking. I especially love the animal figurines you makes. You have the proportions established perfectly. Also the Christmas scenery is incredible. I hope you're praised artist in Spain because you definitely deserve it!

Hi, my new creation:

THE BEAR AND THE STRAWBERRY TREE

The Bear and the Strawberry Tree is the symbol of Madrid. It is part of its coat of arms. It is also a popular statue in the city center. I have folded it from a 96x96 cm square paper. What I like about this model is that it is half crumpled (tree) and half folded (bear). I am happy with the result althought I think I can still improve it modelling better legs and closing the back of the bear.
