Re: YOU Be the Client: An Open Call for Paper Projects

Hello, again, Jeffery.

Perhaps you still haven't decided on a project idea submitted by your fans here...

I love thinking about what you might make out of paper & came up with a couple more ideas.

Paper clothing would be awesome - the outlandish kind you might find on a fashion runway where you wonder if anyone could ever sit down in what they are wearing! I've seen you do so much in white. Bold color would be wonderful.

Along the same theme, a wedding gown or prom dress would be fun.




Re: YOU Be the Client: An Open Call for Paper Projects

Hello, Jeffery. I am awed by your work! I only have time to create 3D, pop-up, or origami Christmas cards for family and friends, but would love to do something BIGGER!

I imagine being lost in a world of paper fantasy! Something really fabulous would be a maze - like those in Victorian gardens - where we are surrounded by fantasy hedges - each with a different theme leading to the centre where we find a beautiful statue or fountain once we have discovered our path.

On a slightly smaller scale, we could create a "pod" space like a tent or dome (or even a closet!) that would invite one in to immerse oneself in paper whimsey - maybe just shapes - like a tunnel of pentagons, or a theme - flowers, paisley, filigree? Again, we walk down a path (or our eyes do) to a final sculpture.

OR let's walk through an arbor hung not only with grapes, but fairies or fantasy figures hiding behind or posing as leaves and tendrils. This would be nice in white, but some knockout color would be better.

To be surrounded with your intricate, flowing and cascading textures would be fabulous. A waterfall just popped into my mind! That would be cool, too!

Please keep surprising me!
