    this is wonderful Mui-Ling!!
    Such unusual media too..very intriguing to look at!

    Thank you Karin! It all started when I drew on overhead sheets for presentations for grade 11 chemistry. This is the first drawing on acetate I done for an actual artistic purpose. Now I do origami out of acetate.

    I’ve framed this one; it looks like this:

    Hey Mui-Ling…i love how one thing leads to another!!
    it’s really fascinating about the acetate and drawing on overhead sheets
    a very interesting idea
    (my hubby is a high school chemistry teacher by the way :))
    i love how it has led you to folding acetate for origami….
    the picture of the framed piece is great..i would love to see it in person!
    I can see the tip of the building on the far right …... it gives this a stained/frosted glass effect
    which is most effective and desirable!!! I once painted some elephants on a plane of glass and overlaid this with another plate of glass, framed it and gave it to my sister…when it goes on the wall, the elephants themselves cast a shadow on the wall and you get this really neat 3D effects!!! similar to what you’ve done here, but using glass and paint. I love how you’ve etched this into the acetate…the vase is incredible with the light hitting it :)
