Artist Uses Fallen Leaves as His Canvas for Creating Beautiful Art

We are surrounded by the wonders of nature and one artist has taken it one step further by using nature’s gifts as inspiration for creating art. Omid Asadi of Greater Manchester, England was inspired by the idea of using fallen leaves for creating leaf art while taking a stroll in the park with his wife four years ago.

Today, he takes leaf cutting to a whole new level by creating beautiful and intricate leaf art pieces by carving fallen leaves. His work has been on display in London and Italy and he continues to astound art lovers with intricate leaf art carvings that are created with only a scalpel, a magnifying glass, a needle and TONS of talent.

Artist Omid Asadi was inspired while walking in the park with his wife when he noticed insects chewing on leaves caused intricate patterns.
