Experimenting with Modular Origami

I haven't decided whether I consider myself a traditionalist or modernist when it comes to origami. I experimented with some modular pieces (combining several identical pieces to create one model) and enjoyed the repetitiveness the creation; however, I still find myself fascinated with the simplicity of basic shapes, animals and other traditional origami pieces. To me, the minimalism of customary origami seems to relay a deeper truth and meaning, almost as if the pieces cohesion is much more apparent through its one-dimensional folds (if that makes any sense)- a little origami philosophy for the day.
I am going to be attempting a complex unicorn and elephant this week and I have a feeling I will gain more satisfaction from their construction, but we will see.
PS: Im super excited to get back into school btw <-- Just a little pointless information. :-)

New Hobby: Origami

I feel terrible I haven’t posted anything on my blog in an extremely long time; it is something that really gives me a lot of joy so I intend of ramping up my blogging! I am starting to think the reason I have been lacking in motivation to post is the fact it has been awfully hot which makes it difficult to bake; thus, no recipes to share. However, I do have more interests than baking so I guess that is no excuse!

Speaking of interests, I have recently taken up the hobby of origami! I seem to have a natural ability for it so I am trying to indulge in the art as much as possible. I find it so peaceful where I find all the trivial stresses of life seem to dissipate into the small folds and creases of the paper. Here are some of my most recent creations that I am bashfully proud of; I think that is what is helping me continue the hobby, I feel so gloriously proud after I complete a piece!
