Maine Friday Art Club

 Hello Dear Artists, For the project this Friday, we are going to make Radial Paper Relief Sculptures. I have attached the instructions and samples of the paper sculptures. It would be good to start early this week and have your materials ready to start the class but not absolutely necessary. If you have any questions or issues with folding the origami, please contact me anytime. Let’s have fun!

 Hi everyone! Attached are various animal templates you can enlarge or minimize and print to use as a template for the Iris folding class on Feb 6.   Also photos of my process.

Or you can ask AI for a template of whatever…. 1.  For the template for class you should use a a heavy card stock like paper.  I like using the size of 8  1/2 x 11 for a template with a smaller stencil.  Too small of a template, I think is harder to do. Remember to use an exacto knife and only cut stencil.  Save stencil.  2.  Do #1 and then cut out a larger stencil  (1/16" to 1/8" larger) of a nice  paper to frame your work. 3.  Write back to back side of white template.  4.  On the stencil (dog cut out) start penciling in lines and numbers and ...
