Class will begin with a quick introduction before we begin our origami folding. Students will learn how to make a paper balloon using origami paper. After folding, we blow into it to inflate it - just like a real balloon! This is the base for our Squishmallow's body. We will then decorate it and turn it into Archie, the Axolotl. I believe art is all about having fun and making happy mistakes. Come and join me so we can make a new little paper friend! No experience is needed for this one-time class.
Learning Goals
