"Blue Origami Crane", oil on canvas board, 6"x8"

I tried using a knife to paint this, but I had more success with brushes. Not much success with the camera, though. The color in this photograph is too yellow, but it was the best I got. The cranes are contagious... my 13-year-old son is madly making them now. He'll probably reach 1,000 and achieve world peace. (That's part of the legend of the origami crane.)
