Following on from the idea of filling the tree full of leaves i began to investigate different techniques for making the leaves and different possible materials. Using different paper, fabric and wire to create the most appealing creation. I found out that i must not only consider the aesthetics but resilient as nobody wants floppy leaves. Using the coloured crepe paper meant that i could recreate the act of the leaves in autumn turning from green to yellow which is a spectacle in Japan. Bunches these leaves together making them more sturdy as the crepe paper is flimsy were the leaves presented on their own. I also like the brown paper leaves if they were possibly coloured yellow just with them having more structure to them. Moving on from this i intend to make more of both the crepe leaves and the brown paper leaves hopefully making a branch to attach them to to asses the model before committing to a certain idea.
