grove den
naturally natural trees
recycling materials ....a farm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspirated by the many "Paper"buildings made by today overhere I decided to do the same. Not realy paper but cardboard(?)= about 1mm thick paper. This kind of very strong paper, is used to pack all kinds of dry soupe or other grocery stuff...( cornflakes, rice, etc...)
The building I'm trying to make is a freelanced version of the types of farms that are common in my region( far south/east of Holland)
It is a farm with a café/bar . Which was very usual in the beginning of the last century overhere...
I use the inside of the packages. It has mostly an ivory white/color, so just great to draw the outlines of the building and the windows/doors..
I use a very sharp, specialy the point, knife and a steel ruler.
because the knife is so sharp I don't have to press hard/severe(?) on the knife. It cuts smoothly through the thick paper and they ( cutted windows and doors) can be removed very easy.
made some pictures :
the plan/drawing:
cutting the paper:
lifting out the cutted window:
half way...:
forgot to show you how I think it could be IF it is finished, a sort of "art impression" ....( sketch made start jan 2008...)
