About DG Origami

What's up! My name is Dave Gillis, origami tessellation artist and fanatic. I learned origami from eighth grade detention for a prank (or two) that I got caught in. The detention proctor was a substitute art teacher and told me I couldn't leave till I learned how to fold some origami pieces. Because I fidget a lot with my hands, this seemed like the perfect match for me to do something with my hands. After an hour of instruction, I learned how to make a crane, box, cube, and a Samurai hat. After several decades of folding, my origami skills have evolved from folding simple objects to more complex models like Tessellations and Modulars. Having the ability to transform paper from a 2 dimensional object into repeating shapes and designs has taken my folding to new artistic levels. I hope you enjoy these models as much as I had folding them. Cheers!
