Art, Thursday, Period Three
"Sometimes," Hardison said, "you wanna make art but you don't have the supplies. No oils, no paints, no pencils, no brushes, no cameras, not even pens or pencils to doodle with. But so long as you got even a single sheet of paper, you can make art."
Not that Hardison was going to limit them to just a single sheet of paper. Every table had several boxes of paper in various thicknesses, colors, and even designs. "I'm sure most of y'all know origami, the Japanese art form of paper foldin', though China an' Korea have their own versions as well. One German artist, Simon Schubert even uses small folds and creases in his art to create images that almost look painted on."
He started passing out books with patterns for people to copy if they wanted to get a start on paper folding.
"There's also the art of quillin', which takes strips of paper an' then rolls, twists, or folds 'em and then glues 'em down into patterns an' shapes to create a three-dimensional picture. These often to lead to bright an' colorful images as several different colors of paper are used. One popular method of quillin' involves using paper that has different colors an' images on either side, so as it's twisted, you get flashes of both sides throughout the pattern."
All right class, get to folding.
