Looking closely at any leaf, you can see the many lines that run trough them, just like the veins in a human body. The intricate and delicate pattern makes you have a whole new appreciation for Mother Nature. Even if someone was to recreate the skeleton of a leaf, it would be difficult to convey the softness and fragility of a real leaf. Bot one textile artist has come pretty close.
Meredith Woolnough replicates many f nature’s leaf and coral creations using only her sewing machine, some embroidery thread and a paper that dissolves in water. The effect that the final product creates is absolutely amazing. Her works will truly make look closely just to be sire that the what you are seeing is truly man made.
