Origami artistChris Conradfolded a complex angel figure without the help of scissors or glue.
Coupled with the papers gray swirl, it looks as though this figure is a tiny stone statue.
The angel took Conrad 15 hours to fold.
Working off a design byMatthew Winnagun, he gave the figure his own interpretation.

I used custom homemade double tissue paper painted with black acrylic.
