-Behold the "Book of Art'" by Isaac Salazar-

Although I rarely re-google-image, stumble-upon recently stumbled me upon this creation by Isaac Salazar, which can be described as amazing 'book origami'.

To see more of his work, or even purchase some of it, go to this link:

About this blog

Welcome to the first ever '2-in-1' blog. Two entirely independent blogs sharing one domain.

"ek wil origami vou"

A blog for paper, origami and 'cool object' enthusiasts. This blog is meant to inspire and teach you some origami skills.

"The Collection Collector"
