Hey there! I’m excited to share with you the story behind this abstract leaf artwork of mine. It’s a piece that holds a special place in my heart, as it embodies my fascination with nature’s mysteries and the power of artistic expression.
When I started drawing it, I was actually loosely sketching, with no particular idea in mind (no thoughts in an empty brain, heh). The centerpiece of the piece is a leaf, but it’s not your typical leaf. In my drawing, the leaf’s veins stretch beyond its boundaries, creating a cool effect. There are big holes in the leaf, too, as there is something about withered autumn destructed leaves that enchants me so much. It’s could be a reminder that there’s more to nature than meets the eye.
I was in a strange mood when drawing it and I chose sepia tones for the color palette, very different from the bright colors that I usually use. The warm, brown hues add a touch of vintage charm and give a sense of nostalgia. It’s amazing how colors can evoke emotions and transport us to different eras.
I created this artwork using Affinity Designer, one of the best apps ever. Along with Procreate it has become one of my most important tools for artistic expression.
The background of the drawing features a speckled textured effect, adding an element of organic imperfection which complements the state of the leaf. It’s a reminder to embrace the beauty found in imperfection and appreciate the harmony between order and chaos.
I’ve added this design to my Redbubble store so you can enjoy it on a bunch of different product, check out some:
Thank you for taking the time to read my random ramblings about this abstract leaf artwork.
