"I started playing with paper since I was a little kid. I have always been fascinated in Japanese origami so my dad pushed me to create more and more paper shapes with different colors. In 1976, my father gave me scissors, glue, pencils and paper and said that if I wanted that new toy for Christmas I first have to show Santa how that toy is worthy.  After 40 years it seems that the curious paper game still goes on and it became my job! Paper is the cheapest material, you can find it all over the world, everybody can have it, a white sheet of paper can be anything you want and you can transform it in anything you like!
Just start using imagination, draw, cut and fold your ideas!"

"I often think of my creative process as two parts. It starts as spontaneous drawings. I draw whatever I have in my mind first, based on the concept of the project. This is more like doodling. After doing so for a while, I start looking at the drawing as a design. That means that I digest the drawing, simplify it, exaggerate, add things and so on. This second part of the process is carefully calculated  and time consuming, compared to the spontaneous first part. At the same time, these two process are important to each other. If one is incomplete, then I will not be satisfied with the result of the design at the end. Everything I design goes through these phases, and I do enjoy both parts of the process in different ways." - Junichi Tsuneoka (illustrator/designer/founder of Stubborn Sideburn )
