Live Oak Tree from Savannah origami mosaic by Kelly Barker

Kelly leaves in the beautiful and historic city of Savannah, famous for its numerous lovely squares planted with live oak trees with Spanish Moss, and she made this beautiful live oak tree mosaic to participate in the collective origami mosaic.

Origami Live Oak Tree mosaic by Kelly Barker, Savannah, Georgia, USA.

I made a live oak tree, which is a symbol of my city (Savannah GA USA). To be authentic, it should have Spanish Moss hanging from the branches, but we'll have to use our imaginations. It's a bit wonky, but then again, so are real trees.

Kelly also share the pictures below that show the process to create the live oak mosaic.

Collaborative Origami Mosaic May 2017

To design origami mosaic, you can use a pixel editor. You can find a lot of free pixel editors on the web, for iOS, Android etc.

Then you need to cut squares of the corresponding colors. One square makes one pixel.

Each square is easily folded into pixels.

And then you need to join the pixels to fold them on the back. And you're done!

Thank you very much for participating in the collective mosaic and adding the US to the map, Kelly!

Origami Pixels

Origami Pixels is a new fun and easy way to make origami tiles that can be joined by folding (no cut, no glue, not tape) to compose beautiful origami mosaics. This type of origami pixels was invented by 2017 by Stéphane Gigandet, and other types have been designed before. The Origami Pixel Unit page tells more about the history of origami pixels and shows how to fold them and join them.

Make beautiful origami mosaics with origami pixels. It's fun, easy and relaxing. No cuts, no glue, no tape, just easy folding!

It is very easy and quick to fold squares of paper into colorful origami pixels. You can then draw with them, and join them by folding them on their back to create beautiful origami mosaics. It's fun and easy! Video demo and tutorial: Origami Mosaics with Origami Pixels You can also combine the square pixels with triangular trixels tiles: Origami Trixels tutorial.
