Most of us are probably familiar with the geometric type of origami, however, only a few know that this paper art can also be produced with curved paper forms using a difficult art technique known as “wet-folding”. This 3D sculpting technique requires a lot of patience and skill so there are not a lot of artists who have mastered it.

Hoàng Tiến Quyết a Vietnamese artist created curved origami using a difficult technique known as wet-folding
My inspiration for these rings is creating the flow of fabric in the metal! Choose from a variety of exciting, hand crafted copper rings with a patina! I love the contrast between the cool of the patina and the warm of the earthy copper color! I've been creating unique pieces of art since 2007 and I would love to create a unique ring that will make you or your special someone smile with delight! Choose the size, style, embellishments and color of patina you like best. I will send you photos of rings available; if I don't have the size, style or patina you like most, I will create one. If I have the a ring available, I can ship them within 3 days, if I don't have the size, style or patina you like best, it will take up to 5 days to create, then it will take 2-4 days for delivery. If you would like to choose the pair, please be available to exchange emails through the Etsy messaging/email service or send me the method of communication that is most convenient for you (your email or phone number so that I can either email or text photos directly to you). Patinas: Choose from Turquoise or Midnight Sun. The Midnight Sun patina can be lighter to have a milk/dark chocolate or black or it can have some added green hues. Process for creating your ring: I start from scratch using copper sheet metal, pierce (cut) it into the starting shape, then anneal it (use my acetylene torch to heat the copper), then after quenching it in water, I fold it using a vice and hammer. Every time you see a fold, I've heated it twice! It looks like flowing, draped fabric! Each set ring is unique and different not just from each other, but from anything you've seen! Prices: Basic ring is $93.

⭐️Stardog Puzzle Purse!💫 by e.k.mosley (Letter or Valentine) Origami This was my first time making a puzzle purse and I had so much fun painting each little picture on all the hidden folds. These beautiful little paper creations can be dated back to Japanese paper folding techniques called tatogami and origami from Japan’s Heian era (782-1185 CE). In Japan they were called Tato and used to hold small objects like buttons, stamps, needles, thread and other small bits and bobs. But when they started coming over to the west, people began drawing pictures on them and using them to write secret messages and love letters. The Victorian’s called them Puzzle Purses and were particularly fond of gifting them on Valentine’s Day. Today puzzle purses remain a fun way to send a magical letter to friends, family and loved one all year round, for all sorts of holidays and special occasions. I hope you enjoy folding your own Stardog Puzzle Purse to keep little treasures in. • Photos are of the original handprinted puzzle purse and the front and back of the digital files • Format - pdf download (and jpgs of front and back) • Pdf can be printed as many times as you wish and on any paper you like. It will print and fold well on standard printer paper but can also be printed on to heavier art papers (250gsm-300gsm) • Print either double sided or as two sheets and stick back to back. • To fold please look up instructions on how to fold a victorian puzzle purse.

Most origami is geometrical, but Vietnamese artist Hoàng Tiến Quyết produces curved paper forms using a difficult technique known as wet-folding. This adds an element of sculpture to the work, making Hoàng's origami animals truly remarkable. Too little water and the paper dries before the folding is done; too much water, and the paper will rip.

David Huffman’s curved-crease models are elegant, beautiful, and illustrative of Huffman’s fascination with curved creases. Huffman’s death in 1999 left us without his deep understanding, but his many models and notes provide a glimpse into his thinking. This paper presents reconstructions of some of David Huffman’s curved crease patterns and models, aiming to recover his insight and uncover the mathematical beauty underlying the artistic beauty. These initial reconstructions represent the beginning of an ongoing project with the Huffman family to study and document David Huffman’s work in folding.

30 Days of Creativity, day 7. I got the idea to make something by folding paper today. I did some searching and followed these instructions to make this paper sculpture.
