Module 5, chapter 1:
Texture in landscape:
I collected photos from landscapes and objects. I had no great choice to make landscape pictures, because this winter we had too much snow. I found some pictures in my photo stock. So the next pictures show my selection:

Picture 1:
Snow-landscape in my garden. All contours are softened.

Picture 2:
A head of lettuce cut through.

Picture 3:
A close up of a fir cone.

Picture 4:
A part of a root of a tropical tree.

Picture 5:

Picture 6:
A rose in my garden (winter).

Picture 7:

Picture 8:

Picture 9:
Paper relief investigations:
Different types of paper partly ripped into strips and partly folded in zigzag. I wrote the types of paper on the black cardboard.

Picture 10:
Paper test scrunched with different type of papers (11 kinds). Each paper has started as an A4 size and was scrunched down to fill the 1/9th section of an A4 sheet. At the bottom right I wrote the types of used papers.

Picture 11:
Manipulated tissue paper. Scrunched, bows with a knot, twisted strips and caned strips in curves.

Picture 12:
Another sample of different kinds of manipulated tissue paper. There is also to see a combination of two processes on the same piece of paper.

Picture 13:
4 samples of cattering manipulations from tissue paper.

Chapter 3:

Picture 14:
Texture and relief in paper. Here are two samples of the photos from chapter 1 picture 7 (plant in snow) and on the right site picture 2 (head of lattuce). The plant was made from long strips of twisted paper towel knotted and glued down. The lattuce was created from small strips of copy paper folded into irregular zigzag and glued down on corrugated and covered with white tissue paper.

Picture 15:
Snow landscape in my garden and a fir cone transformed into textures. Crunched paper balls were covered with a sheet of tissue paper.

Picture 16:
A stack of wood transformed  into paper texture with tracing paper.
My rock block was made from black corrugated paper. Before ripping it was covered with white tissue paper. The stripps were than glued down.

Picture 17:
The root of a tree was made from long strips of twisted kitchen towel.
The texture of the tree was made of big and small paper strips. I have use copy paper, translucent paper and tissue paper.

Picture 18:
Fabric investigations:
13 different types of fabrics. I tried to burn the edges of each piece, also to fray the bias edge of the fabrics.

Picture 19:
A closer look to the edges. I have used different fabrics to make exciting edges in different ways.
