Origami is a traditional Japanese art of paper folding, that, in the hands of an origmai artist, transforms a regular sheet of paper into a wide variety of forms and shapes, only limited by the imagination and skill of the artist.
I've found this incredible series of origami animals and a few other amazing shapes, and immediately fell in love with it.
