Jacaranda season

It’s a flowering season in Sydney now, but outside of the season, jacaranda trees tend to lose their leaves (or at least many of them) & can look quite bare. The trees are deciduous in their growth habit, losing their leaves for part of the year. In Sydney in particular, they often turn yellow in winter & lose their leaves in late winter/early spring.

Cut-out leaves

Lito, a self-taught Japanese artist who began creating intricate, hand-carved art on fallen leaves as a way to manage his ADHD. He carefully selects each leaf & carves whimsical patterns that often depict animals, objects & landscapes – transforming delicate leaves into complex scenes.
Art that captures the fleeting beauty of nature.
