Dedicated to Lillian Oppenheimer, a luminary in the early ’70s Origami world, this butterfly, designed by Michael LaFosse is pretty neat:
Interestingly, not poles apart in technique from “Alexander’s Swallowtail“, I chose different colours and was careful with the wing formation so it was morphologically distinct.
I must look around for more butterfly designs, I realised I had done nearly none, favouring the super complex insects. there is something wonderful about a carefully controlled splash of colour.
