My parrots and butterflies are one of a kind art from pressed flowers. Dried flowers in the picture shown here are in their natural colors. So all materials were collected and prepared by me. Thousands of tiny pieces of dried flowers create realistic pictures. You will never find the same leaves and that is why each leaf is such a treasure.

This beautiful book "Alchemy. The Art and Craft of Illustration" by Sandu Publishing has just arrived from China! Really honoured to be included in this book! The book includes my interview, preface, and artworks. It feels great to see my work featured in it among so fantastic projects!
Moving away from current computer-dominated trends, Alchemy- showcases work made from materials such as paper, cotton, wire, features, and embroidery. This book reveals how illustrators use a multitude and reveal their own lavish inner worlds My technique is based on nature and everything that nature so gratefully gives us.
For me, the process of creating art from thousands small elements is like magic. It starts as nothing, but suddenly gains volume and shadows and it becomes alive. Simple pieces of polymer, when manipulated, transform into 3d sculptures and timeless objects. Size is 70x70 cm. I used different polymer shapes so it allowed creating real seabed in 3d dimensions.
