"Eyeball" series




Starting out, I did not intend this to be a self-portrait. But I'm told now that this is not a conclusion I can exactly avoid....















You be the judge.


Anyway. So, I figured out how to do eyeballs properly from origami, and now am going crazy putting eyes on everything.





Note the magnets--the lozenge-shaped thingies. I use those on the 3D surface in places where clips can't reach, to hold layers together as the misted paper dries. (The paper is pre-treated with methyl cellulose and a light ink rub, so it stiffens up nicely.) --Anybody else do this?

Cheers!
