Love Birds

Thank you!! So glad you like it. They just need some angel light on them now ;)

Yup; they were both made from the same piece of paper too. I feel like God making paper birds version of Adam and Eve :P

Many thanks Scott!

Thank you so much pinkyjain; and thanks for the fav!

That is a great idea Karin; thanks for the suggestion! I am a part of the ‘Inspiring Greeting Cards’ group, though whatever I submit there has to have text. I typically don’t like putting text on my work as I feel they loose their artistic quality; but I may just post them when the occasion come and take them down after. Glad you like this and appreciate you comments! Hugs

For sure! Especially this time having both hands in there. I used the timer on my camera, but it was hard to keep my hands still without dropping the birds, as I was only holding the very end of their tails. You’ve made me recall my experience of when I was shooting ‘Born from the Hand’ my first piece among my miniature origami. People’s initial reaction when seeing that was the size of the crane; and I told them I had a harder time with the photography since I was both the photographer and the hand model! I feel you understand well the challenge of the process; thank you.

Awww, thank you Thelma! returns hug

With the origami yes. As for the photogaphy, well…

Thank you so much! I’m heading to bed now; good night.

Thank you Midori :D

YUP! Glad you saw that. Thanks Lori.

Teehee! Thanks fa! glompz

Literally; sort of :P Thanks!

Thanks for the comment! And for recording the history ;) cuz I’m sure it will not stay in the featured pages forever.

Perhaps I could first do a video folding a 6×6mm crane. The first time you suggested doing a video was after I posted my 3×3mm crane, and that is much more difficult both to fold and to record (I was folding that one under a magnifying glass). If I can find the time I would like to record that one too because I also think it will be interesting. But for now I still have two more origami shots I want to do; hopefully no one is tired of these things yet :P

Thank you Gail. I was actually close to your age when I first started doing miniature origami; though back then (I was 10 or 11) I didn’t do anything small as I do now (at least not as nicely :P). I use tweezers and needles to fold my little origami. For these birds and the crane in Born from the Hand I didn’t require them as much as they were not that small; only to do small folds like beaks. When the paper is as small as 6×6mm I use tweezers, and sometimes needles, all the way through. For my Born from the Cell I pretty much had to use needles all the way through as shown in the photo next to your comment. I’m glad you like this; thanks for the fav.

Yay thanks Sal!
