Esquisse Three















I chose to use a Maple leaf that I found to create in a 3D paper translation. The first paper representation I made was formed through the use of Origami. It was simply made from a square section of A4 paper, folded and overlapped to create the above.
The second representation was slightly more meticulous, I firstly cut out the general shape of the leaf, I then tried to replicate the 'veins' by cutting out shapes in decreasing size to correctly follow the Fibonacci sequence. I then took this pattern and connected them with the general shape I cut out before. I made small cuts for the shapes to slot into.
The third representation was done by cutting out the shapes of the main leaf sections then connecting them by using slits and a strip of paper.
