Carved Leaf Arts by Lorenzo Duran Silvan

Inspired by the patterns in leaves left by very hungry caterpillars, Lorenzo collects the fallen foliage from his backyard and sketches designs on them before meticulously cutting them out with a pointy object, taking anywhere from a week on each design to two months.

Naturayarte

Spanish artist Lorenzo Duran uses incredible detail when cutting his delicate designs into dry leaves. The ongoing project is called Naturayarte and it has got to be one of my favourite examples of scalpel cutting.
