I believe that we look at many things everyday, but don’t SEE them. For example, apples had been falling from trees for thousands of years, but only Isaac Newton truly saw that and, thanks to him, our lives have changed forever.

Dandelion

Che Guevara

Once I visited a paper cutting exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery; that was when I noticed the leaves as well.

I mostly use maple leaves because, in the area I live, I can find them easily Eagle

I use a craft knife or scalpel and needle. It is not like a paper cutting because each part needs a certain pressure to cut. If I make a mistake, I destroy maybe hundreds of hours of work. Eye

Feather

For me these leaves represent our life, which is too short. I’m trying to give them another life. John Lennon

I remember when I was a little kid, I used to draw on the back of rose petals and leaves with a needle. Phoenix

Old Hand

Persian Cheetah I created this work to support the Persian Cheetah, which is a species that is at risk of becoming extinct.

Nature’s Scream

I have received loads of positive feedback from the public and media, and I am glad people like my works and enjoy them. This shows how we can create beauty, love and make this world better for all of human kind and other creatures instead of suffering from wars, conflicts, diseases, hunger, hatred, etc. Me In Action

And that word is PEACE
