Our first real day in class we talked about our first assignment, and then split into our lab section to do a "warm up" exercise. The directions for both are posted here.
So we had to crumple, fold, or tear any piece of paper in any way we chose and then draw ones that we found most interesting. I had no idea what to do so I just started twirling the paper and came up with a design that I liked. I liked the twisted-ness of the paper and how it looked. So I went from there trying out different angles and tightness of the twists. Then I tried a more relaxed curl in the paper and drew a few like that. These ones really remind me of shells, almost too much. (I didn't really like that). Once I felt like I couldn't get any more creative with curling the paper I just grabbed another piece, folded it and unfolded it. It turned into a shape that I liked, but in the end I went back to twisting the paper. I just like how it has that flower, leafy, fire look to it.
