If you are wondering how big a leaf of a tulip tree can be: so big that it comes into its beauty very well in a 40x50cm frame 😍🌕🐈‍⬛

A leaf of a tulip tree painted with acrylic paints. You see on the leaf a black cat standing on a wooden bridge on a full moon night. She’s looking at you

Here you can see Ken with his dog Nelly. I was allowed to paint the two on a plane tree leaf and I am very happy that the picture has a place of honour at their home🥰🫶🏼❤️

I painted a spotted owl (also Brahmakauz) on a leaf with acrylic paints 😍
The Brahmakauz is quite small at 21 cm and stocky. The top is grey-brown and white-stufted🦉🍃

My „Harvest Time - Ivy Leaf“. The mood still feels warm, even when autumn is just around the corner 🌾

Temple in Hampi, India

Temple in Hampi, India, in the morning. The sky has an orange colour before the sun shows up. Everywhere between the trees in the woods and the temple is fog

You love nature? You love sunsets? When you see a sunset, does it remind you of past beautiful moments? Then this hazelnut leaf is just right for you 🥰. When you look at the leaf, you can feel the sunrays 😍.
Now imagine you can look at it whenever you need sunshine for your soul🫶🏼

Here you can see my ✨Magic Moment✨, which I will experience at some point. I know that the northern lights don’t really look like that (only with long exposure) but it would be nice anyway.

I painted it with @schmincke_official acrylic paints on a lilac leaf ✨🍃😍

Ivy leaf painted with acrylic. On the leaf you can see a butterfly sitting on a clover flower Efeublatt bemalt mit Acryl. Auf dem Blatt sieht man einen Schmetterling, der auf einer Kleeblüte sitzt
