I am much more comfortable with this doing task, the thought of manipulating paper in many different ways is comfortable and appealing.
Dissolve – not strictly manipulating paper I now realise, but using the properties of paper to manipulate ink. I expected the tissue paper to dissolve in water ore than it did. I could experiment with use of detergents or temperature of water perhaps.
crumple – a positive and negative image using a corrugated card template and thin crumpled tissue paper.
creasing paper and folding it into letter shapes.
Creasing letters into paper – I’ve recorded these in my sketchbook.
I especially like the idea of peeling away layers of bill board to create words…
