Going into this assignment I had no idea what I wanted to do with my egg. Luckily for me, I had Tiff sitting right beside me - who began doodling almost immediately after I cracked my egg on the floor. Her doodles consisted of an egg becoming more and more cracked until a dragon hatched out of it. Now I'm not as into dragons as Tiff is, but it gave me the idea to replace the dragon with a phoenix instead. I had several ideas for how I would bring this phoenix to life but I ultimately settled on creating a Japanese origami crane. Unfortunately for me though, I've never made a crane before and there aren't too many places that sell origami paper (as far as I know). I tried making my cranes out of sketch paper because I wanted a thick, strong paper that I could later spray paint. Well...That didn't work out too well for me. They either came out too big for the egg or too sloppy because of the paper being used. Thank god for Tiff though; She had made dozens of origami cranes a long time ago and was kind enough to give me one of hers. All that was left was to spray paint it.
