This page is for those who want the instruction to fold a sitting origami elephant.

 

This sitting origami elephant is a good example to learn an inside reverse-fold.

 

If you are ready, then let's get started.

You may use any kind of paper to fold the origami elephant. It is a little easier if the front and the back side of the paper are slightly different whether it be in texture or color.

Make sure the paper that you use is a square (all sides are equal and all the angles equal 90 degrees). The paper I am using here is a typical origami paper with a dimension of 15cm x 15cm.

Elephant



Lips break their grip but nothing comes out
And I don't want to see what's in front of me now.
So I sidestep the elephant in a mannerly fashion
And pretend not to have seen what I pray never happened.

I walk out of the room and erase my memory-
Shut the door behind me and start looking for some symmetry.
But like a faraway summer I can't quite recover,
I play with the thought that we can keep it undercover.

And somewhere behind me the elephant sits..
Like she's waiting for me to pick up something I missed.
But I travel on, down this one way street
Tripping on the prayer that I don't have the elephant's feet.
