When Artists Get Bored They Make Paper Planes

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Make your own paper plane designs inspired by some of art's greatest names. Simply cut out, fold and fly!

Paper plane expert Trevor Bounford has spent years sharing his creative templates for paper pilots of all skill levels. Now his ingenious imagination propels the work of some of history's greatest artists to the skies.

With 16 templates - each reimagining an instantly recognisable masterpiece as an elegantly cultured flying machine - simply cut out, fold and enjoy flying these spectacularly swooping works of art. Whether you're launching Hokusai's iconic Great Wave off Kanagawa into the air, or watching Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie soar, the simple instructions and cut-out templates in this kit promise paper plane delight!

With the designs carefully conceived to reflect a range of artists and art forms, the selection also includes the work of Frida Kahlo, Hilma af Klint, and Sonia Delaunay.
