Come "wet-fold" this lovely Seahorse with me and learn about paper selection, relative thickness, and compressibility--essential factors when several layers in a model accumulate, such as in an origami insect, or in the spiral tail of this Seahorse. When complete, I will challenge you to balance the Seahorse on its tail so that it can stand up on a level surface.

I named this model for Al Miyatake, a longtime friend and supporter of origami. He was with Japan Airlines and was instrumental in several, annual Origami Christmas Tree projects in NYC and Hawai’i.
