When the artist scrutinized it for the first time, she was overwhelmed with amazement. There, hidden among the beautiful form and veins, was a serene elf king. The earthy portrait evokes a sense of fantasy and magic, that takes us back to a time when we were children who longed to find a fairy in the forest. It may just be a matter of using the right sort of eye. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1431887016651-4M00WJCMQCU6WHIT5ZPJ/Harmonia.jpg Available - Harmonia (2015) Species: Common Fig (ficus carica) Dimensions: 35 x 35cm *Available at the More Than Wood Gallery, 100 Mile House BC CAN This piece was created during a prolonged stay at the ranch of a friend in Mexico. There, Dessie retreated into the jungle for a period of intense introspection as well as a welcome reunion with nature. For this leaf, she instinctively decided on an alternating pattern of positive and negative space, which resulted in this asymmetrical abstract design. Perhaps it captured the essence of the somehow harmonious inconsistency with which the artist lives her life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1436301765544-ICL5XIXO75K81A3YOCLP/2015-06-14%2B14.59.00.jpg Available - Cazadoritas de Flores (2015) Species: Elephant Ear (Colocasia) 35.5 x 35.5cm *Available at the More Than Wood Gallery, 100 Mile House BC CAN It wasn't until she developed a way to dry leaves before carving that Dessie was finally able to apply the amount of detail this type of leaf demanded. These two are the smallest and most delicate, set against a wispy black background on canvas and sealed as always with epoxy. To the artist they conveyed an air of searching, and in a fit of loving humor she gave them their Spanish name, which translates as “Little Flower Hunters”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1525222680300-C0EPBLSXFSGFO5AW998U/20180425_144634_Richtone%28HDR%29-1.jpg Available - La Selva (2015) Species: Traveller Palm (Ravenala madagascariensis)/Dimensions: 75 x 120cm *Available at More Than Wood Gallery, 100 Mile House, British Columbia CAN It was always Dessie’s dream to find something in a giant palm leaf. However, she was intimidated by its massive, empty surface. She put it off until the last minute, much like a baby bird hesitates at the edge of the nest, and then began an intense period of carving. The leaf slowly revealed an entire jungle scene, complete with two serene looking jaguars. This piece is a testament to the artist’s continuing progress; a masterpiece in both a visual and logistical manner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1577053199789-WSJBAIB2B607PT3WL5C9/20180504_221807_Richtone%28HDR%29+-+Copy.jpg Available - A Precious Offering (2018) Species: Eastern Redbud (Cercis Canadensis)/Dimensions: 22 x 23.5cm/$1000 This species of plant has hidden a variety of beautiful images that Dessie has uncovered over the years. This is one of those momentous pieces in which Dessie is able to see something truly spectacular but from the outset, questions her ability to bring it to fruition. However as usual, she had no choice but to attempt to rise to the occasion. Slowly and painstakingly, a pair of hands was revealed cradling the symbol of something very precious indeed: peace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1461722662687-G2OK1MORJH2XMXC0DI8Y/FullSizeRender+%281%29.jpg Available - Mandala (2016) Species: Assorted Canadian / Dimensions: 56 x 71cm / $2700 This piece is Dessie's most intricate to date. It contains 60 leaves, each fully carved and arranged to form a mandala. The artist shut herself into her father's cabin in British Columbia during the winter and spent weeks carving and preserving a stockpile of autumn leaves, which she had collected back in 2012. Individually, each leaf is impressive and together they do the meaning of a mandala justice, creating a microcosm of shapes and forms which challenge the eye's ability to comprehend. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1467752887887-F8HW5KJA5DKLRY6QB6ZY/Demon+of+War.JPG Available - Demon of War (2016) Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) / Dimensions: 26 x 17.2cm / $500 This leaf has an atypically oval shape to it, unlike the usual skull shape presented by this species of plant. It wasn't until Dessie did some research on Japanese history that she discovered the leaf’s true essence. When she looked at it again, she recognized the menacing glare of an Edo-period Samurai war mask, the kishin or demon face once presented in battle and theatre. Dessie felt a definite sense of unease mixed with fascination at having brought this mythical monster to life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1526583320358-ASS44EL5ROFQTUYE1AJG/20170909_122827.jpg Available - Moonlit Raven (2017) Species: Unknown / Dimensions: 22 x 15cm / $850 A majestic raven is hidden in the veins and form of this leaf Dessie had brought from Mexico. She debated over whether or not to carve out the detail on the bird’s body, but in the end the remarkable feather-like pattern demanded to be painstakingly shown. Once finished, the artist placed the piece under glass in the sunlight for weeks, to bleach out the color so as to mount the leaf on a background of black fading into a bluish grey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1536392050278-SDXPAJIK543SMUHACT73/Graceful+Invasion+Edit.jpg Available - Graceful Invasion (2018) Species: Amur Maple (Acer ginnala)/Dimensions: 61 x 50.8cm/*Available at The Tokin Treehouse, Cave Junction, OR, USA The story of this piece began in the front yard of a house in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia. Dessie was enjoying the shade of the tree and examining the leaves, when she saw that their shapes mirrored that of jellyfish. As she watched them, swaying in the gentle breeze and taking on the essence of these strange creatures in her mind, she at once realized that a new project was underway. This piece is the second in which Dessie has combined leaves with a painted background to portray a scene, and she was inspired to use the leaf fragments themselves to form trailing tentacles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1526521610278-61NJDWB58D3R5UQ4EC2U/20180503_193647_Richtone%28HDR%29.jpg Available - Space Time Fabric (2018) Species: Unknown / Dimensions: 40.7 x 35.5cm / $750 These unidentified leaves were found in a Mexican forest that Dessie was exploring back in 2016, and were tucked away in her collection for two years. Inspired by the graceful curves of the leaves themselves and wishing she could follow those lines as well, Dessie got the idea to trace the shapes onto her handmade background paper. One idea led to another and she became engrossed in the expanding shapes. The veins of the leaves create a framework and striking focal point, beyond which the layers spread out--along with the imagination. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1468282518960-7PZL6X5F0E43XWX3NFFD/FullSizeRender.jpg Available - Ancestral Spirits (2016) Species: Sea Grape (Coccoloba uvifera) / Dimensions: 14.2 x 20.1 cm / $650 This Sea Grape leaf was found at the temples in Tulum. Dessie could see the profile of two faces, but had no idea what they would look like. Slowly one and then the other emerged, with very different features but both wearing expressions that radiated a wizened, kindhearted amusement. It made Dessie think of our ancient relatives peeking at us through the leaves of trees, benevolently watching as our lives unfold. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1526521130762-IR0M4NOQ4FUFS1XLYO36/Winter+Wosky.jpg Available - Winter Wosky (2017) Species: Greater Burdock (Arctium lappa) / Dimensions: 39 x 25.5cm / $800 While canoe camping in British Columbia, Dessie came across a patch of very large leaves. Despite the fact that it was a long journey home, she had to have them and picked as many as the cooler would hold (guzzling a beer or two to make more room). While working on this piece she felt the presence of a playful spirit, and couldn’t decide if it looked more wolf or husky-like. When Dessie asked her leaf art fans to vote, one woman suggested that it looked like a Wosky (Wolf-Husky cross)…and so it was. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1454373622800-H8E3XCA2BKCQUBPGJQL9/FullSizeRender%2B%281%29.jpg Available - Scattered Connections (2016) Dimensions: 29 x 25cm / $500 Dessie found this mysterious leaf outside a gas station in the high mountain city of Tepic, Mexico. It stayed hidden in her collection until January 2016, when the artist was putting together her Cabin Collection in the mountains of British Columbia. Dessie began by carving out random larger spots on the leaf and then felt compelled to connect them all using smaller sections. As she created, she was struck by how well it seemed to reflect the nature of our own human connections. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1526584240308-EXCH6FA3O4NQ28BCV558/Family+of+4+%28backlit%29.jpg Available - Family of 4 (2017) Species: Palmate Coltsfoot (Petasites palmatus) / Dimensions: 30 x 36cm / $550 Dessie collected these coltsfoot leaves from the meadow above her studio in the British Columbia wilderness. While playing with the arrangement of this abstract exploration, she accidentally stumbled upon a placement that resulted in the stems coming together to create the number 4. When Dessie excitedly showed them to her mother, who was visiting at the time, she exclaimed “It’s a little family of four!” The name stuck, and this elegant piece became a new addition to the artist’s collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1531201176176-Y0XDD4BP9S86GX335LF3/20180707_184625.jpg Available - The Mosaic (2018) Species: Bigleaf Maple (acer macrophyllum)/Dimensions: 35.7 x 28cm/$985 The day before Canada Day, Dessie beheld her precious collection of bigleaf maples, from her 2013 trip to Vancouver Island. As she began a simple abstract carving, the little pieces flying away from the leaf under her blade, a concept began forming. Travelling has given Dessie a deep appreciation for the true greatness of Canada, part of which comes from the collective efforts of the many immigrants and natives alike who, together, form the rich tapestry of this country. Those little pieces became personified as unique individuals, that in unity form a beautiful totality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1558460434737-DIE59OOTIHX1Q4L55B22/20190520_143255.jpg Available - Sea of Serenity (2019) Dimensions: 30.5 x 91.5cm / $1900 This piece is infused with the particular brand of adventurous joy with which it was created. Dessie has added a new approach to her repertoire, using multiple leaves to express a single image. When applied to her existing archive of numerous leaves, this altered perspective has brought a fresh rush of inspiration to the artist. Turtles hold a special place in her heart, and she was delighted to find them and bring their pieces together. Dessie also experimented with paint on the canvas background, a final step towards bringing to life these ancient souls of the sea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1557262052752-5KGIZLMZADRRALGMYZ5Q/20190505_135547.jpg Available - To Give (2019) Dimensions: 40.7 x 30.5cm /*Available at Diseno Natural Galeria, Puerto Vallarta, MX This piece marks a new period of experimentation for the artist as well as the beginning of a new collection. The title was chosen to express the selfless and adamant way in which Mother Nature renews herself. Dessie used a minimum of carving and left the face blank, as a way to let the viewer create their own idea of the ethnicity and expression of its features. She mounted it on a white canvas and used cured grass stems for the signature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1577650054728-KHN2DJV3AZEVO52SNGBP/20191229_100542.jpg Available - Cover: Blown (2019) Dimensions: 50 x 50cm/*Available at Diseno Natural Gallery, Puerto Vallarta, MX This piece marks an important and long awaited return for the artist, who spent nearly two years immersed in other projects and circumstances while able to make but little time for her art. Dessie’s return to the place where she debuted her art, in Puerto Vallarta MX, was rejuvenating and she set to work almost immediately on a leaf she had brought from Canada. Once revealed, this rather grumpy looking tree frog struck Dessie as being a little peeved at having its hiding place discovered. This is what inspired her to present the piece in such a unique way, as well as decide the title. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1580361172089-K7WTIJSAARTDNJNRNJ0K/watermarked.jpg Available - Menagerie (2020) Species: Crookneck Squash (cucurbita pepo)/Dimensions: 35.7 x 44.7cm/*Available at Diseno Natural Gallery, Puerto Vallarta, MX This extremely atypical squash leaf was collected by the artist from her mother’s garden, and sat in the archive for quite some time. Time after time, Dessie would examine it and feel overwhelmed by the sheer variety of shapes and possibilities presented. Finally, she decided just to “wing it” and started by carving a horse, whose profile was jutting out from one side. As soon as that piece fell into place the rest revealed themselves one by one culminating in the appearance of no less than nine very different figures. Dessie decided that “Menagerie” was a fitting title for this eclectic array of creatures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1616013405556-ENLAVA07240E5YRFT9T7/Dissolution.jpg Available - Dissolution (2020) Species: Lesser Burdock (Arctium minus)/ Dimensions: 55 x 37cm/Price: $650 This statement piece was created in early 2020, after the bushfires in Australia. The artist chose to mount the piece on a background of bark she had collected in Mexico years ago, and using the cut pieces of leaf created an effect of dissolution and fragmentation to express the current plight of the species. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1616013555497-YOSKMAK96RHLVC3X6Q4O/20200204_123430.jpg Available - Koala (2020) Species: Lesser Burdock (Arctium minus)/Dimensions: 25 x 23.5cm/Price: $600 In this piece, which followed its predecessor “Dissolution”, the artist wanted to convey the animal itself as she saw it in the leaf, liberated from the mentality of sorrow and doom now widely felt after the Australian bushfires decimated their population. The animal in this leaf exudes the lopsided charm that has made the koala such an iconic species, with the veins of the leaf even capturing the essence of its rather erratic fur. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1397278026223-ZPJNWXZ196QF7LLGZ60W/Crepusculos+Destellos.jpg Available - Crepusculo (2012) Species: Buddha Belly Plant (Jatropha podagrica) 21.5 x 23.8cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) *Available at the More Than Wood Gallery, 100 Mile House BC CAN Dessie randomly carved sections of this Buddha Belly leaf, having no predetermined idea of the outcome and simply enjoying the contours. When finished, she regarded the leaf and felt the sensation of looking down into a dark well, with ripples of water catching the light just enough to portray fleeting, ghoulish glimpses to the eye of a curious mind. Hence the name, which in English translates as “Twilight”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1375768600725-60XS57HW5G2HHXKYNV5B/Familia.jpg Available - Familia (2012) Species: Arrowhead Croton (Codiaeum variegatum) 15 x 29.5cm, 8.7 x 17.5cm, 5.1 x 14cm $900 Although a recurring theme so far in the artist's work, the leaves used to make the fish in the Puerto Vallarta collection are from a different type of plant than those of the Sayulita collection. The striking colors and bold outlines suggested a fish of a sturdier, more predatory variety, and this was enough to send Dessie off on a new binge of multi-piece creating. What keeps her going is how each leaf, and subsequently each fish, has its own subtle personality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442283594132-8Y68RNI43LS2G49N7B6D/IMG_8078.JPG Available - Ojos Pacificos (2012) Species: Breadfruit Tree (Artocarpus altilis) 64.5 x 42.8cm (Photography by Giorgio Romano) $950 This is the biggest leaf Dessie has carved to date, and a real example of how each leaf carries such different character than the next. Her second effort at portraying a lion, it is a gentle giant with placid eyes that seem to carry the weight of the world and yet somehow hold the innocence of a small cub. The leaf’s impressive size is a testament to what it is possible to accomplish with this art form. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1397323372542-7LYXYXWULEP6QH7GIXI4/tortured+soul.jpg Available - Tortured Soul (2011) 17.8 x 14.7cm $450 Oddly enough, this piece began as a simple abstract in which the artist was engrossed by the intricate patterns of the veins and simply had a desire to carve them so as to present their full beauty. As she continued to work, Dessie began to notice that a strange, distorted face was taking shape. The design has no shape of its own and lends itself completely to the veins in the leaf, yet somehow portrays to the eye a fearful, wailing expression (or a happy panda to some optimistic folks!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441835941495-N7UMWPRPII6GZ6SXY7CB/The+Trees+Are+Watching+%232.JPG Available - The Trees are Watching #2 (2011) 50.8 x 60.9cm $900 The second piece of a series created in a newly pursued style, The Trees Are Watching #2 is a compilation set against canvas using multiple pieces to present a scene. This concept was an evolutionary step for the artist in that she has taken more of an active role in presenting her ideas, whereas with other work she feels that she is simply bringing forth an image already presented by nature. Dessie had often thought about how a large majority of leaves resemble the shape of an eye, and this gave birth to a concept involving the relationship between humans and this Earth we inhabit. It seems that as a species, we go about our lives with an attitude of mindless consumption and irresponsible destruction, all the while completely unaware that the eyes of Mother Nature are silently watching. This concept led to the choice of title, and the hope that these works of art would inspire a shift in the perception of the collective human consciousness…to be aware of our actions and behave as if a Mother is watching. http://violenthippieart.com/meet-the-artist daily 0.75 2016-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1474603220160-3YRFMLHSISY6D870NYB8/%C2%A9Victor+Spollen+Photography Meet the Artist ©Victor Spollen Photography https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1453843762588-MEGCZKZVNN8DQWG0BJSH/eh-canada-button-150%5B1%5D.png Meet the Artist https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1454562366186-E1K5GTCUQQKV15IZ8JMU/travelinfluencer-200.png Meet the Artist http://violenthippieart.com/all daily 0.75 2025-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839954407-PQD9JXZ7I0LX9MKOLPA6/Tres+Peces.jpg Sold - Tres Peces (2011) Dessie discovered the strange fish-shaped leaves down the street from her apartment in Mexico. She quickly became obsessed with creating as many fish as possible from this one small tree, which happened to be the lone possessor of these leaves. Each one has a completely different character, from the small and malnourished to the large and stately leader of the school. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441843885710-02PWIO3EZJP96TBD9W80/Mundos+Abstractos.jpg Sold - Mundos Abstractos (2011) 8 x 15cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) The idea for this particular piece had humble beginnings. While on a morning walk in Sayulita, Nayarit, Mexico in January 2011, Dessie sat down to catch her breath at the top of the hill. She focused in on what at first appeared to be unremarkable leaves, clinging tenaciously to a neglected bush beside the sun beaten path. If it hadn’t been for her own need of what meager shade those leaves provided, the artist may never have taken the time to see what lay within the common oval shape. What she saw were the striking and lovely patterns created by the veins, most noticeably the large spaces created which were filled by ever smaller networks creating the tough skeleton of the leaf. Rejuvenated by the excitement of her find, Dessie ran home and began work on these “abstract worlds” she had seen. The end result was a piece of art using two different leaves to create one intertwining design representing the endless exchange of energies in all its ever-changing shapes and forms, which occur on this planet we call home. The name of this piece is “Mundos Abstractos”, which is Spanish for “Abstract Worlds”. Dessie named all works made in Mexico using the Spanish language, her tribute to the land and people that changed her life so much. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839989750-B4QVB89F7HX3RTSO6RFK/Tres+Delfines.jpg Sold - Tres Delfines (2011) Species: Tropical Almond (Termanila catappa) 10 x 22.5cm Dessie risked life and limb to retrieve this leaf from the top of an almond tree in Mexico! There were plenty of almond trees on the street where the artist was living, but this one leaf stood out as the most vivid red of them all. She waited for several days before deciding that no other would do. Dessie climbed the wall of the football field and hopped out on the tree, straining to reach the precariously positioned leaf while a group of bewildered and amused senoras watched from their juice stand across the street. It turned out to be a good gamble, as the result was this meticulously detailed piece in which the veins seem to mimic the effect of rippling water. The middle vein of the leaf represents the surface of the water and the place where the positive and negative space is reversed, with one dolphin almost completely submerged while another is in mid-jump. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441927108689-NDZSR4ELK8JPJ6HVN0VG/Pez.JPG Sold - *Pez (2011) 30 x 28.5cm While living in Sayulita, Mexico, Dessie happened upon a small tree down the block from her apartment which possessed peculiar fish-shaped leaves. Of all the pieces she had created, these were the most self explanatory in terms of the image the leaf paralleled. They also happened to be the perfect consistency for carving, and she was able to take a lot of time creating the desired level of detail. The piece was taken to Canada unframed, and Dessie set it into a cut piece of log using epoxy resin. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839724488-LY2MH3ZYR5JSO2JK530D/Aguila.jpg Sold - Aguila (2011) 22.2 x 14cm This piece is a favourite of the artist for its tendency to confuse the perception of those who view it for the first time. It seems that the natural tendency is for the eye to examine the negative space as an image in and of itself, temporarily dismissing the positive. It isn’t until the brain switches perception that the real image, contained in the positive space of the leaf itself, becomes strikingly apparent. The leaf has been transformed into an eagle which has been disturbed from its rest, with a look of fierce alarm in its eyes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839723594-QIBJLUHSGMQAE494IE37/Ballena+Jorobada.jpg Sold - *Ballena Jorobada (2011) Species: Tropical Almond (Termanila catappa) This piece is the first almond leaf Dessie attempted to carve, and every one including this one seems to exude a very marine feel. It was collected at a time of year when the almond trees become bright with colour and shed their leaves in Mexico. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839733902-J3SQWXBVJHKUR9EHS3DM/Caballito+Del+Mar.jpg Sold - Caballito del Mar (2011) approx. 15 x 10cm When the artist fist glimpsed the the leaves of this creeping vine, commonly found in the Bahia de Banderas area, she was awed at the images that leaped out. Dessie felt that she was standing beside a wall of seahorses, each unique one peering furtively at her as if awaiting discovery. This is the first to be uncovered. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839831714-4PSOMYP2LU0PZIOLOE8B/Leon.jpg Sold - *Leon (2011) Species: Breadfruit Tree (Artocarpus altilis) At the time it was made this was the biggest leaf Dessie had ever carved. She was climbing the tree to get it when an old man came out and yelled at her to get down, and after Dessie explained herself, he got a long pole saw and cut down a leaf. She gave this to an ex-boyfriend's mother because she couldn't speak Spanish well enough to explain how important it was for her not to give it away. Needless to say, from that day on Dessie resolved to improve her Spanish! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839727169-U1X4GE64OYBRVZ3ERG8X/Caballo.jpg Sold - Caballo (2011) approx. 15 x 10cm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839774235-V0M0966B77DS8CJE8D4E/Garza.jpg Sold - Garza (2011) Species: Pothos Plant (Epipremnum aureum) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839924439-GS3SC583WMN2K7NQ50KY/Reflexiones.jpg Sold - Reflecciones (2011) approx. 18 x 10cm This simple yet intricate piece expresses the mirrored vision of the faces of two lizards, showing the image in both positive and negative space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839877964-ZREPO4VRUA8IRLXD42PK/Madre-Tierra.jpg Sold - *Madre Tierra (2011) Species: Mango (Mangifera) 28.9 x 7.7cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) The concept behind this piece, brought to life within a mango leaf, personifies some of the artist's deepest and dearest beliefs. It is an image of a faceless woman with wide, voluptuous features and strong legs cradling the Earth to her belly in a caring and protective fashion. This piece is a holy grail in Dessie's collection, and she carved it with the feeling of catching a glimpse of the real artist behind all of her work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839831815-YM6IMHQQEX0YTIDTWWHZ/Las-Viboras.jpg Sold - Las Viboras (2010) One of the first additions to her Sayulita collection, this piece was created before Dessie had aquired a work lamp or table. She began carving this piece during the early afternoon against a plastic stool outside her apartment, and thirteen hours later completed it, squinting heavily beneath an outdoor hallway light surrounded by frenzied flying insects. It has since become an icon for this collection, its image often accompanying the Violent Hippie Leaf Art logo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839749934-D83GMAJLSO1PY0CVV1DQ/Dinosaurio.jpg Sold - Dinosaurio (2010) 18 x 19cm Although greatly influenced by her new found home beside the sea, Dessie's eye remained quick to recognize dinosaur features in a leaf—especially one so perfectly shaped and strikingly striped as this beautiful one found in Puerto Vallarta. This piece remains one of her favorites, for its ability to confuse the viewer’s brain into looking for the image in the negative space. However, if one takes a step back to contemplate again, the image of a raptor with its head turned back becomes unmistakable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839787037-1G5S9TMAJFADDWQ7ETY7/Ganesh.jpg Sold - Ganesh (2010) approx. 20 x 20cm This magnificent piece was made from a leaf collected in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The tree from which it came was very unique tree which Dessie has not since seen, and originally this leaf bore variegated green and yellow stripes. The colour was allowed to fade to a uniform yellow and took on its full elephant character. The stately expression and flowing design inspired the artist to call this work “Ganesh”, after the Hindu deity. Elephants, such as the one which marked the first step of Dessie's artistic career, seem to be a recurring theme in her work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839777530-D5M8MUJ8Z4OFIY3AICY6/Hojo+En+Hoja.jpg Sold - Hojo en Hoja (2010) One of the most fragile pieces the artist has ever attempted, this paper thin leaf collected in Sayulita, MX, was the first among many eyes Dessie has spied in leaves. Although the shape of a leaf often represents an eye, this one came complete with eyebrow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839837671-TJJN1ST1J8M27M0CAMIZ/Mujer.jpg Sold - Mujer (2010) Species: Mango (Mangifera) approx. 20 x 8cm Carved into a roadside Mango leaf, this piece is Dessie's very first human form. The shape of the Mango leaf lends itself perfectly to the graceful lines, the womans hair melding with the background to become the positive space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839918540-XAQY0WZB6T5NY3HCT3BM/Raptor-%232.jpg Sold - Raptor #2 (2010) Species: Variegated Croton (Codiaeum variegatum) 9.6 x 29.4cm Created in Sayulita, MX, this piece was shaped so much like the head of a raptor that the transformation was completed just by carving teeth, eyes, and nostrils. Originally a striking green and yellow mix of colours, when exposed to the sun it faded to a final beautiful fall yellow. The reason for seeing such an image in this particular leaf can likely be attributed to the fact that Dessie grew up hunting fossils in the Drumheller region of Alberta, Canada, which is world famous for its many dinosaur fossils. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839859158-03RSE7E5IAVZ2K8EYCZ8/Pulpo.jpg Sold - Pulpo (2010) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839915900-TA8BE4V4Z4EKZHVO11RJ/Raptor.jpg Sold - Raptor (2010) Species: Variegated Croton (Codiaeum variegatum) 10 x 29.5cm The overall shape and striking markings on this leaf inspired one of the simplest pieces in this collection. With just a few well-placed cuts, the leaf was transformed into the head of a raptor, with the lack of detail allowing the piece to speak for itself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839931992-H7CFOO3NW7AI0XAIHA24/Sayulita.jpg Sold - Sayulita (2010) approx. 18 x 25cm This piece was the first ever to be sold, at Dessie's debut exhibition at the Pop Diner in Puerto Vallarta, MX. It also happens to be the first landscape piece made by the artist. A whole world was hidden inside the features of this seemingly unremarkable leaf. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839938818-91038KJZP2B3MU3Z6BWD/Tortugas.jpg Sold - Tortugas (2010) Dessie first saw these leaves in the courtyard of her apartment building in Sayulita, MX. Upon further inspection while hanging laundry in the yard, Dessie felt that these leaves had a decidedly turtle-like shape, and played with the positive and negative space while creating this piece. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452668240624-9OGCAO50T7XF8B6RBF6L/Lagartija.jpg Sold - Lagartija (2011) * https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1489281194013-EYVTUAEGWQ9SRRXDCE9U/20170311_122437-1.jpg Sold - Amanecer (2010) 12.8 x 12.4cm This piece was created when Dessie had just settled into a new life in Mexico. Having always lived on the Canadian prairie, suddenly becoming a seaside dweller in a foreign country had a huge effect on her life. This pivotal time proved to be the source of great artistic development and this piece, although partly inspired by the curving shape of the leaf itself, is nevertheless an indicator of the artist's state of mind. The title is the Spanish word for “Dawn”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1620857598941-8CZJ6Z54A3T0YU7CD41W/demonitos.jpg Sold - Los Demonitos (2010) Its name meaning “the little demons” in Spanish, this piece is among a considerable number of fierce-looking images in the artist’s body of work. For Dessie, it evokes the sense that during times of depression, the soul is accosted or accompanied by a myriad of savage little thoughts of which the thinker dare not speak yet feels powerless to avoid. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1620857801001-5ZYKYMFRY1ZXISSID05O/Pecera.jpg Sold - Pecera (2011) This is the only picture remaining after the piece was destroyed in a fire. It was a prize piece in the artist’s collection. Dessie discovered the strange fish-shaped leaves down the street from her apartment in Mexico, and quickly became obsessed with creating as many fish as possible from this one small tree, which was the lone possessor of these leaves. Each one has a completely different character, from the small and malnourished to the large and stately leader of the school. The seven pieces were transported to Canada, where the artist took an experimental leap of faith and set them against pieces of wood board for display. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1616178611890-RVV7QISXPNPEHHNL9X1G/Matriarch.jpg Sold - The Matriarch (2007) This is Dessie's very first piece; the leaf that started it all. At the age of twenty, the artist was studying the features of a large leaf with her usual sort of appreciation when the image of an elephant head suddenly became apparent to her perception. Inspired, she took the leaf home and carved it to reveal the hidden image. From that day on Dessie began to look at leaves in a whole new way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842078892-I64D6SHLX7A451DB2DE9/Kraken.jpg Sold - *Kraken (2010) This fearsome beast was made with a somewhat limp Hops leaf on a hot summer day in Calgary, AB. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842161491-H3GS42OC59FF0RF396FF/Windy-Meadow.jpg Sold - *Windy Meadow (2010) 7.5 x 22.7cm This is one of the few pieces in which Dessie had no idea what kind of image was taking shape until after the final cut was completed. As with every abstract piece the artist has made, she simply began carving by instinct. This particular leaf contained an unusual pattern of rounded spaces which were left as positive space while the rest was carved leaving only the veins. Once finished, Dessie held the leaf at arm’s length and immediately had the impression of a field of flowers blowing in the wind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842126694-28DYPGYDVRUS4SXRXG4E/Petroglyph.jpg Sold - Petroglyph (2009) 19.1 x 20.1cm This leaf is about as big as Red Deer River valley cottonwoods get. The vision fits nicely with its majestic size, and the image which resulted was this soulful looking lion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842179555-AXT21134XTBAZIRCM8FI/Wetland+Birds.jpg Sold - Wetland Birds (2009) 14.3 x 6.6cm, 13 x 6.3cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) A worthy challenge presented itself the day that Dessie first saw birdlike features in a leaf. She has created several works involving various types of birds since, but these happen to be the first and also the smallest. As difficult and delicate the work was, the artist was determined to bring to life the images she saw. The result was a pair of graceful crane-like birds which were paired together. This piece set the bar of intricacy for future works to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842124669-SZYE0VHYGCM9X3SZ05RJ/Sea-Life.jpg Sold - *Sea Life (2009) 20 x 9.9cm To date, this is the only piece made using a leaf from a plant commonly known as the Rubber Tree. Although thick and sturdy as a specimen for the actual carving process, this leaf took an exceedingly long time to dry and nearly decayed while drying, which resulted in its unique mottled colouring. The curving shape of the leaf brought to mind the shape of a dolphin leaping. As with much of the artist's early work, this piece lacks the typical intricacy of newer pieces yet, like all, carries a charm of its own. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842155300-QHKJ8KIH5FBBAXI1A4Q8/Vicious+Vine+Leaves.JPG Sold - Vicious Vines (2009) This piece of art was very nearly lost to history. Hidden in a thick book and so thin themselves as to not be easily found, the two leaves escaped notice for nearly two years. Created from common tropical houseplant vines, the toothy raptor faces represent a recurring motif in Dessie's work. It may amuse one to think that such fierce and predatory images so often reside within the seemingly harmless and benevolent features of a leaf, and she quite enjoys uncovering this dual nature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842088928-YWH6J3KR57SMGMX4JHC5/Peekers.jpg Sold - Peekers (2009) This early abstract piece seems to portray a variety of strange faces, partly hidden behind what could be a thatched roof. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842039123-KQF3AJ3H24BX3FEMXGOG/Elephant.jpg Sold - Elephant (2008) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842033421-JOFLB6EL38K2QTIQBBI0/Dragon.jpg Sold - *Dragon (2008) 17.9 x 8.5cm The outline of this leaf suggested that there was a mythical beast hidden within, that defied the small confines of its borders. With a few carefully placed slices, the features of the leaf and the vision in the artist's mind combined harmoniously to create a winged dragon perched on a rock and about to take flight. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842042310-RCEMMNKJKHYU31M0H6C5/Fragility.jpg Sold - Fragility (2008) 16 x 8cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This thin leaf was a lesson in fragility for Dessie and really taught her how careful one must be when carving tertiary veins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842084427-JNIMTPBDBJGPNV9FS37H/Meat-Lover.jpg Sold - Meatlover (2008) 21.4 x 15.4cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This is the only existing, and barely accomplished experiment on the possibilities of carving a partially decayed leaf. Made from a Reddeer River valley Cottonwood, this was one of the first works in which Dessie included the smaller tertiary veins in the design. When scanning the leaf for display on the website, a friend’s child asked if he could name one of the pieces and when presented with this one, he thought carefully and decided on “Meatlover”! The name stuck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842072031-X1DF6XKTGI2ZU89ZI14V/Lion-In-The-Rough.jpg Sold - Lion in the Rough (2008) This was the first lion Dessie ever glimpsed in the features of a leaf, and is limited in detail by the leaf's very small size. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842132914-XIM0PMJMLTTN1C4NHUZU/Snake-in-the-Lilacs.jpg Sold - *Snake in the Lilacs (2008) Species: Common Lilac (Syringa vulgaris)/Dimensions: 13.7 x 8.9cm The artist's favorite Early Work piece. Snakes are difficult to carve as there are so many intertwining lines and angles which must be seen with the minds eye and carved while maintaining that vision. The outside shape of this Lilac leaf was altered, a practice which Dessie now avoids. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842044031-CFST2TNSKQ5P5B40YVYB/Good-and-Evil.jpg Sold - Good and Evil (2008) This may be one of the strangest works Dessie has created, as she had originally set out carving the shape of a meditative angel. That was how she saw it until one day someone looked at it and immediately blurted, "Wow look, its a pumpkin devil!" Perspective is everything, and the title of this piece speaks to its duality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842141462-EP9U7862MOWO71821IGN/Tropical-Palm.jpg Sold - Tropical Palm (2008) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842119886-62WO1PRIMZ92FPIT86UY/Poisonous+Leaf.jpg Sold - Poisonous Leaf (2008) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842139283-3QC9WJL2VLWLF8080CXD/Venomous-Pair-%28pt.1%29.jpg Sold - Untitled (2008) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842027886-T242L65VJ4XUH5BGB0WW/Autumn+Abstract.jpg Sold - Autumn Abstract (2007) 20 x 15cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This piece marks the very first time Dessie ventured into the world of the abstract, mesmerized by the unique shapes and patterns presented by the leaf itself. By carving out some surfaces and leaving others in a random spontaneous fashion, she created a piece in which there is room for a variety of interpretations. Yet, regardless of what features the eye focuses on or which conclusion the brain comes to, the hope is that this piece invokes a sense of beauty and perfection in imperfection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842032215-8NC5PZK7ZSMGP3G15UMW/Drumhellephant.jpg Sold - Drumhellephant (2007) Species: Black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa)/Dimensions: 19.7 x 13.5cm This elephant, when compared to the first one Dessie created, really drove home the fact that every single leaf is entirely different in character. It left the artist with a sense of security, knowing that she could carve 500 elephants in 500 leaves, and would have 500 very different elephants! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441842046799-7X49I2BVMRBK2O4MYOZA/Hungry-Toad.jpg Sold - Hungry Toad (2007) Dessie has long had an intense affection for toads, and had a pet toad of her own for nine years. When looking at this piece, one may obtain the same perspective that a small crawling insect may have had, and perhaps a sense of its last moment as well! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1620856254198-6ZEZZOW5A5DW1Y8NL8QS/Reptiles-%28pt.1%29.jpg Sold - Reptiles (Part 1, 2010) This two part piece of art was a real accomplishment for the artist in terms of difficulty, both in carving and preservation. The leaves, found in Calgary, Alberta, were extremely thin and fragile. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1620856254716-R0QBUPI0QG57VKWXDF3D/Reptiles-%28pt.2%29.jpg Sold - Reptiles (Part 2, 2010) This two part piece of art was a real accomplishment for the artist in terms of difficulty, both in carving and preservation. The leaves, found in Calgary, Alberta, were extremely thin and fragile. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837339475-UEGC0YXJCXRER4822TPN/Una+Madre+de+Amor.jpg Sold - Una Madre de Amor (2012) Species: Tropical Almond (Termanila catappa) 13 x 23.5cm Something about the shape and curve of almond leaves has always caught Dessie Jeanne’s eye as being of a marine nature, whether the playful dolphins in the Sayulita Collection or this beautiful portrait of a mother Humpback Whale’s love. Even the veins create a pattern that looks like sunlit ripples of water, well worth the time taken to carve each space. The artist much enjoyed the feeling of uncovering this image, sitting at her table so close to the bay where this scene may have been happening at that very moment. The feeling of connection to the world at that time was something she will never forget. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837243036-4RM0UISYLTBN6GTFSBFB/El+Rostro+de+la+Madre.jpg Sold - *El Rostro de la Madre (2012) Species: Breadfruit Tree (Artocarpus altilis) 32.7 x 22cm This is perhaps the most significant piece yet in the entire collection, at least to Dessie. She collected this leaf from a Breadfruit tree in Puerto Vallarta with the intention of carving a woman’s face and hair, but had no notion of what the face would look like. When finished, what she saw took her breath away. Staring fiercely back was, to Dessie's mind, the face of Mother Nature herself. The eyes radiate a glow of strength and depth, seeming to pierce the soul of the beholder, and the features are strong and native. However, the strangest thing happens when the leaf is flipped over. Suddenly the face appears softer and more vulnerable, more caring somehow. This, beyond all else, convinced Dessie that she was indeed holding something quite unlike anything else she had ever created. The duality of Nature seems to be perfectly embodied in this precious piece of art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837149753-5ZH9NDDR6QSBFBNL0UG4/Andaluz.jpg Sold - Andaluz (2012) 11 x 19.3cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) Horses have always been a part of Dessie's life, very dear to her heart as well as her artistic eye. When in Mexico, she saw for the first time the majestic Andalusian breed, known to the Spanish as the Andaluz. Dessie watched them perform dances at a local rodeo and was entranced, seeing these horses as a living, breathing work of art. A few weeks later, when hiking down the mountain behind her apartment in Puerto Vallarta, she stopped to rest on a vine shaded bench and noticed small bushes all around. Dessie's eye picked up the graceful curves of its leaves and recognized the face of an Andaluz, those perfect lines repeated in almost every one. For a moment she had an amazing sensation of being surrounded by a herd of these beautiful animals, and later that day a new piece of art was brought to life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837240659-7TU0IJOV8DTVF2HHLGHL/El+Gecko+Gordo.jpg Sold - El Gecko Gordo (2012) 17 x 10.7cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This small yet incredibly detailed piece is a good example of the basic idea behind Dessie's artistic style, and gives an actual glimpse of what her eye sees before the process has begun. The leaf’s serrated edge and shape lends the inspiration to create a small lizard, which can be seen plainly on the carved side. The side left untouched is almost a mirror image, and gives the viewer the opportunity to imagine for themselves how a lizard could be hiding there. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837151129-VWEOJAU6HWZH03AVLDPA/Aparicion.jpg Sold - Aparicion (2012) 36 x 14cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This strange work of art almost didn’t survive the preservation process. The mysterious, somewhat haunted expression on the subject’s face is enhanced by the fact that the leaf began to decompose, leaving the face blanched and ghostlike. Dessie feels this to be yet another example of the collaboration between Mother Nature and herself in creating this art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837331667-WOTXQUS0GZ5R5VN4IOV9/Sayulita%232.jpg Sold - Sayulita #2 (2012) 15.8 x 31.4cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) Dessie simply couldn’t help creating another coastline scene, a year after her first. The lines in this type of leaf set the perfect stage for the image, the composition of which allows the artist to use a mix of positive and negative space. This piece shows how even the most commonly shaped leaf can have a whole world of images hidden inside. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837156892-JO3OQKAJZF5SKUP1O3UO/Baile+del+Pulpo.jpg Sold - Baile del Pulpo (2012) Species: Buddha Belly Plant (Jatropha podagrica) 36 x 14cm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837216912-ACBKNFZARXME7XWM3399/Calavera.jpg Sold - Calavera (2012) Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) 37 x 25.5cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) While on a leaf-hunting stroll on the mountainside above Puerto Vallarta, Dessie was pleasantly surprised to find a type of tree she had never seen before. The leaves were large and shaped like skulls, which may have been somewhat disturbing to some. For Dessie, they instantly brought to mind the traditional Mexican calavera, or sugar skull, associated with the Day of the Dead. She was excited at the prospect of creating such traditional Mexican art with a different medium and enjoyed the process so much that she created two, using different designs from her own imagination. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837162723-HX2J99C4PQNYXOM5ZBIE/Caballitos+del+Mar.jpg Sold - Caballitos del Mar (2012) 13.8 x 8cm, 15.5 x 7.3 cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) This delicately carved work of art was created from vine leaves growing in Puerto Vallarta. Although there were plenty along the wall of the friend’s house where Dessie was visiting, she climbed along the railing of a second floor balcony and reached out precariously to pluck the two which had caught her eye. The shapes of the leaves capture the essence of these secretive ocean creatures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837290125-XS86UUUJTL7Z5W3BNI61/Palomas+en+el+Amor.jpg Sold - Palomas en el Amor (2012) 22.2 x 14.5cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) Here is one of those magical pieces in which the artist could carry a minimalist approach to carving, on account of the image being so clearly represented by the leaf itself. Dessie picked it while walking a path in the remote village of Yelapa, Jalisco. She marvelled at how perfectly the outline of the leaf represented two doves perched with their beaks together, snuggling on a branch and how even the space carved out between them seems to portray a heart. After all the fierce images she has glimpsed in leaves, it was a pleasure to create something so peaceful and loving. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837212108-J82Y2WYKA0Y0K0OOAJD2/Calavera+%232.jpg Sold - Calavera #2 (2012) Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) 27.8 x 21.3cm While on a leaf-hunting stroll on the mountainside above Puerto Vallarta, Dessie was pleasantly surprised to find a type of tree she had never seen before. The leaves were large and shaped like skulls, which may have been somewhat disturbing to some. For Dessie, they instantly brought to mind the traditional Mexican calavera, or sugar skull, associated with the Day of the Dead. She was excited at the prospect of creating such traditional Mexican art with a different medium and enjoyed the process so much that she created two, using different designs from her own imagination. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837243719-DK832IM3CCE58DN10STZ/Disipando.jpg Sold - Disipando (2012) 19 x 5.2cm While walking on a jungle trail in Yelapa during the dry season, Dessie came across a tree that was letting go of its leaves. She sat in the gentle breeze and watched as a leaves detached and drifted to the ground, silently carpeting the area with beautiful red and orange hues. Picking one up which had fallen near her feet, she examined it carefully and noted the roundness of the spaces between the vein networks. The experience inspired her to create a piece in which the leaf surface seems to dissipate, gradually unveiling the skeleton which holds it all together. It is an expression of the peaceful, noble way in which trees conform to the cycles of life and death. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837282715-WT87BDSRPKVXLD658NX6/Espectro.jpg Sold - Espectro (2012) 5.8 x 27.5cm, 5.3 x 24cm The leaves used to create this piece are quite common decorative plants in Mexico and often show up as houseplants in Canada. They have a very distinctive vein pattern which the artist decided to showcase in an abstract design, from leaves carefully picked to show a wide range of color. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837297445-VCMBT756UBYARWKV37BE/Guardi%C3%A1n+del+Arrecife.jpg Sold - Guardian del Arrecife (2012) 15.4 x 30.6cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) Although a recurring theme so far in the artist's work, the leaves used to make the fish in the Puerto Vallarta collection are from a different type of plant than those of the Sayulita collection. The striking colors and bold outlines suggested a fish of a sturdier, more predatory variety, and this was enough to send Dessie off on a new binge of multi-piece creating. What keeps her going is how each leaf, and subsequently each fish, has its own subtle personality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441837325367-8P7I6ZO20RR7Y9AYTLW3/Sapo+de+Hambre.jpg Sold - Sapo de Hambre (2012) 14.7 x 11.6cm (Photography by Kenny Kan) Dessie found this strangely shaped leaf while waiting for a water taxi in Boca de Tomatlan, Jalisco. She was looking for a different type of leaf that she had remembered seeing the year before, and was walking along looking upwards when a small thorny bush whacked her in the leg. Dessie peered down at it irritably was astonished to see this odd plant, covered in thorns. She bent over to get a better look and noticed that one of the unique leaves bore a striking resemblance to a toad, which is a favourite animal of hers. Suffice it to say, the day’s mission changed suddenly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1460420278236-N2MLV01HPY610JFYE3CB/Secretos+en+la+Selva.jpg Sold - Secretos en la Selva (2012) Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) Dimensions: 36 x 26.2cm Made from the same type of leaf as the decidedly more cheerful Calaveras, the artist’s inclination towards a realistic style demanded that she create this piece. Sometimes artists have to create crowd-pleasing art to make a living and sometimes they must create a piece for their own sake as an artist, because they see what they see and have an urge to create regardless of mass appeal. Most of the images Dessie Jeanne creates tend to have a naturally wide appeal, but there are a few that veer into disturbing territory and she believes that every one deserves to have its existence known. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839236110-AX38N73D5PQGR2K3CY57/Owl.jpg Sold - Owl (2011) A chance encounter with this leaf in her mother’s garden led Dessie to create what is, to date, the only owl in her collection. Dessie's face was almost touching the large leaf while she lent her full attention to pulling weeds around the plant’s base. Her eyes suddenly focused in and immediately recognized the Owl, from the feathery shapes of the veins to the overall outline. The weeds took a backseat for the rest of the day and this compelling piece of art was born. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839228207-JGATMX00NIPW31AQRDZA/Reviving+The+Past.jpg Sold - Reviving the Past (2011) 25.7 x 20.5cm Dinosaurs have been a recurring theme in Dessie's work. She's unsure whether this is a result of having been raised in dinosaur country (the Red Deer River valley is a world renowned fossil bed) by a father who was an avid fossil collector, or if nature simply has a melancholic desire to pay tribute to extinct species in a subtle way. Strangely enough, it is the Red Deer River cottonwood tree which seems most perfectly to mimic such features. This specimen, with its perfectly serrated edges and overall shape, presented to the artist an undeniable resemblance. The title given to this piece refers not to the artist's intent but to her idea that this may be Mother Nature’s own wistful indulgence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839242282-DCZO2OHE8JHD9J2E6W4E/The+Trees+Are+Watching+%233.jpg Sold - The Trees are Watching #3 (2011) 50.8 x 60.9cm The third piece of a series created in a newly pursued style, The Trees Are Watching #3 is a compilation set against canvas using multiple pieces to present a scene. This concept was an evolutionary step for the artist in that she had taken more of an active role in presenting her ideas, whereas with other work she feels that she is simply bringing forth an image already presented by nature. Dessie had often thought about how a large majority of leaves resemble the shape of an eye, and this gave birth to a concept involving the relationship between humans and this Earth we inhabit. It seems that as a species, we go about our lives with an attitude of mindless consumption and irresponsible destruction, all the while completely unaware that the eyes of Mother Nature are silently watching. This concept led to the choice of title, and the hope that these works of art would inspire a shift in the perception of the collective human consciousness…to be aware of our actions and behave as if a Mother is watching. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1441839248307-Q8F14LGNBMVVGJLVD5T2/The+Trees+Are+Watching.jpg Sold - The Trees are Watching (2011) 60.9 x 91.4cm The first piece of a series created in a newly pursued style, The Trees Are Watching is a compilation set against canvas using multiple pieces to present a scene. This concept was an evolutionary step for the artist in that she has taken more of an active role in presenting her ideas, whereas with other work Dessie feels that she is simply bringing forth an image already presented by nature.

Quite a few leaves bear in outer shape a resemblance to the eye, but this bean plant leaf stood above the rest with its asymmetrical shape, which seems to suggest an eye complete with eyebrow. With no real intention as to what kind of emotion to portray, Dessie, as per usual, began carving. The result was this alarming piece of art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1499912681131-8K5CHYDQ9VT4WGC9CQXM/Jaguar.jpg Sold - Jaguar (2015) Species: Pothos Plant (Epipremnum aureum) 41 x 27cm This impressive piece is a prime example of just how much Dessie is willing to push the limits of both herself artistically as well as the individual leaf’s ability to hold an image. She took great risks applying the detail to this piece, which had an especially flimsy working texture. Dessie has always been intimidated by the degree of difficulty presented with properly portraying the spots on the various Big Cats, and in her earlier years leaned towards drawing pictures of cougars and lions. However, when she saw the image Mother Nature had put before her, this time there was no doubt: it was a jaguar. With a lot of faith and no shortage of anxiety, she set to work slowly and this beautiful, confident creature was born. Not only a personal victory for the artist, but also a new masterpiece that has received an overwhelming amount of attention from art enthusiasts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1423354835335-F8A7JP6XNNQR7K1KGQUY/4+Estaciones.jpg Sold - 4 Estaciones (2015) 113 x 113cm While on a road trip to San Sebastian del Oeste with her mother, Dessie stopped at a viewpoint in the mountains of Jalisco so they could stretch their legs and take in the scenery. Growing in the ditch beside the road, these tough leaves quite impressed her with their size and durability. Their shape and vein patterns so perfectly mirrored the image of a tree, the artist began to dream of a piece in which the four seasons were displayed. We see the timeless interaction between seasons reflected in these four simple leaves, with the added creative touch of the autumn leaves falling to the foliage of the spring in a symbolic expression of nature’s self-renewing quality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1432846426259-YRHSU5P1GI5LOXE2NNTM/2015-05-28+13.19.55.jpg Sold - Monarca (2015) Species: Elephant Ear (Colocasia) 35.5 x 35.5cm While out for lunch in Bucerias MX with friend and fellow artist Tracy Bonin, Dessie spotted this plant growing at the entrance to the building. Having no knife with which to cut the leaves, she decided to instead bite them from their stems, which worked quite well until she noticed a few minutes later that her mouth was burning and had the sensation of just having chewed on construction insulation. This unpleasant experience went on for about 2 hours, long enough for Dessie to take thorough note never to chew the stem of this particular plant again! The leaves, however, became beautiful butterflies and this piece is one of those. She split the stem (this time with a razor blade!) to create the antennas and worked carefully with the fragile surface to create the image of the majestic Monarch butterfly, whose migration extends from Canada to Mexico and back again…much like the artist herself! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1421520295087-09L7HJ3DCUU37ADFB23O/Las+Garzas.jpg Sold - Las Garzas (2015) Species: Pothos Plant (Epipremnum aureum) 45 x 29.7cm While on her morning walk up the mountain in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Dessie spotted an impressive Epipremnum aureum (commonly known as the Pothos Plant) specimen wrapped around a large tree. She had made a beautiful crane from the same type of leaf in 2010, and when she examined this particular leaf, she saw two! After a lengthy curing period, during which the leaf turned a vivid dark bay color, the artist set to work and uncovered this intricately detailed image. The marshy background, and plain contrast between the sky and water creates a three-dimensional effect, with the graceful birds dominating the foreground. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452215945347-J13LRDMN37VRECI7B58V/Guerrero%2BViejo.jpg Sold - Guerrero Viejo (2015) Species: Sea Grape (Coccoloba uvifera) 35.5 x 35.5cm Dessie collected this leaf while visiting the ancient temple site in Tulum, Quintana Roo, MX in 2013. While walking among the ruins, she spotted a shrubby, tough looking tree of a type she had never seen. Intrigued, but without having a chance to really inspect the leaf, she quickly picked just one. She pressed the leaf and it sat forgotten in her collection until 2015. While on a creating binge in the jungle outside Sayulita, MX, she finally took a closer look at the leaf and immediately saw the face of a warrior, with long hair tied in a flowing ponytail. At first, it appeared to be the face of a young man but as she carved the leaf, it took on the feel of someone older and she felt compelled to etch decades of age into it. What resulted was the weathered yet eagle eyed face of an indigenous warrior. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438807015915-QO00RD92N40CMG2MGJLA/Jalisco.jpg Sold - Calavera #4: Jalisco Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) 33 x 23.5cm The Calavera series has been extremely popular with collectors and happens also to be a favorite of Dessie to create. They are unique in that the shape of each leaf in its entirety suggests so blatantly that of a skull, but also that the subject matter of the Mexican Calavera is so accepting of artistic expression. In this way, she is able to continue creating new pieces with different themes, and is also able to create custom pieces in which the client can express their own interests. This particular piece was an expression of the love that Dessie has for the state of Jalisco, with its intricate artistic designs and of course the agave plant which is proud symbol of its heritage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438807395533-91AHYM3MK5NZ4TNMS7OD/ventilador.jpg Sold - Ventilador de Flor (2015) 35.5 x 35.5cm The artist’s first experiment with coloring leaves nearly met with disaster, but managed to save its existence thanks to the fast setting time of the epoxy Dessie uses to seal her pieces. She had picked these leaves from a mountainside property during her short stay with a friend near Mismaloya in Banderas Bay. The underside of the leaves was a deep purple, and although she hoped they would keep their color during preservation, it faded as fast as the rainbow sheen on the sides of a trout that has been caught. Disappointed but seeing a chance to learn something new, Dessie stained the leaves black and set them against a backdrop of light colored tree bark mounted against canvas. When she poured the epoxy over the piece to seal it, the color began to bleed away from the leaves and it appeared as though all was lost. However, the resin quickly set and the effect was quite subtle. She decided to save this little flower fan and add it to her collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1420433506462-WL6ZKQWQQ8NE0MJVS9Q2/Calavera+%233.jpg Sold - Calavera #3 (2014) Species: Fiddle-leaf Fig (Ficus lyrata) 33 x 23.5cm Commissioned by a Mexican collector intent on a sailor-themed calavera, Dessie once again climbed the old fig tree above downtown Puerto Vallarta to collect this specimen. The rainy season had begun in Mexico, which always brings life springing forth. As she carved this leaf under the light of a lamp, a giant cicada flew into the house and supervised her work with a glassy eyed stare. The result was this entertaining addition to her line of skull leaves, bearing ship steering wheels for eyes and adorned with waves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1397691749290-A0P35Y10R297V401CAG4/Arboles+Vigilantes.jpg Sold - Árboles Vigilantes (2014) 70 x 90cm This commission piece was made in the style of the series called "The Trees are Watching", in which Dessie expressed her concept that the majority of leaves are shaped like eyes, as a symbol of the awareness with which Mother Nature observes humankind. The leaves in this particular piece are from several different locations, the bright red being from Alberta, Canada, and the rest from different locations in Jalisco, Mexico. A careful examination will reveal that one set of leaves contains both carvings, and the scraping away of a fine fuzz which covered the leaf surface.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452216139634-XV7Z3GBQ4IFNOB45TH68/Peyotes.jpeg Sold - Medecina Maestro (2014) Species: Indian Cress (Tropaeolum majus) 80 x 100cm While visiting Banff, Canada, Dessie found these beautiful leaves in the yard of a friend. Even without carving, they bear a striking resemblance to the form of the peyote cactus, native to Mexico. The vision behind this piece built upon itself gradually, and the process used to create it was largely experimental. The leaves were mounted on black paper backgrounds, cut to the shape of the leaf and with holes to allow the canvas to express the flowers and tufts of the cactus. The canvas was then covered with sand, different layers creating the form of a spiral, winding around the peyotes. The artist expressed her own vision while respecting the cultural significance of this sacred Huichol symbol, a transcendor of realities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1421907539072-7R6RSRQ1YC0LC8I8N8I0/Primera+Flor.jpg Sold - Primera Flor (2014) Speices: Flamingo Flower (Anthurium) 27 x 11cm This piece marks the first time Dessie Jeanne Marshall has ventured outside the realm of leaves, to create a piece of art using a flower. Commonly called the Flamingo flower, this Anthurium specimen has a single waxy petal with graceful vein patterns. Intrigued by its texture and beauty, Dessie decided to experiment. Originally white, the flower turned a mysterious black during preservation. It is truly a unique piece, and a landmark addition to her body of abstract work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1432680168623-XA2D827XPZ7YMB6S0PN2/10411115_10153541771257985_6122128404783833961_n.jpg Sold - Sunflowephant (2014) Species: Sunflower (Helianthus) 32 x 32cm Elephants have been prolific throughout the years as a subject in Dessie’s work, ever since her first piece. The shape of the elephant head seems to be represented by a number of different species of leaves. In this case, it wasn’t the artist herself but a friend of hers who pointed out the virtual herd of elephant faces adorning a towering sunflower plant, growing in the organic garden of a friend in Oregon, USA. The artist then sat in her makeshift workshop in a little oak-shaded camper next to a stream, and created the gentle face you see here. The name came up while joking with the friend who discovered the leaf, and immediately stuck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1433179254387-FVD5S8XCU9O6BIXZGTA1/Pinguinos+Tropicales.jpg Sold - Pinguinos Tropicales (2014) Species: Queen Anthurium (Anthurium warocqueanum) 40 x 12.3cm Found in the Bahia de Banderas region, Dessie had to laugh when she glimpsed the image hidden within the features of this leaf. This piece certainly certainly couldn’t have been inspired by the tropical location in which it was found, and is rather an affirmation of the fact that Mother Nature herself is the genius behind the art that Dessie creates. Feeling quite amused, as well as excited to be uncovering a totally new and unexpected image, the artist set to work. The result is this pair of King Penguins, peering down at their precious egg. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1439842693430-2XDYBIQP6YYRITSS72ZH/Swan.jpg Sold - Swan (2013) 12.2 x 16.8cm Although Dessie Marshall has created a variety of works involving birds, this piece is the first to portray the iconic and symbolic swan. The leaf used was collected on Vancouver Island, from a very old vine which had entwined itself around a pillar at the Fairmont Hotel. Once dry, the leaf was very fragile and a challenge for the artist to carve. Dessie settled on combining abstract and representational elements to create the image of a swan landing on water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438807395257-VRG247M487U85QPGJU8X/Soul%2BEmbrace.jpg Sold - Soul Embrace (2013) 25.5 x 16.5cm This piece represents a pure love, of the kind that has been silenced for centuries and belittled as a form of dysfunction--the gay couple. Mother Nature herself presented it to the artist in its true light, as two souls connecting in a pure embrace that is linked, both physically as the arms imply, and spiritually, as represented by the network of veins in the space between them. This leaf sat hidden in the pages of a book for years, and although Dessie could see the loving couple whose image it quietly kept, every time she put it on her carving table something told her she wouldn't get it quite right. Since those days Dessie has seen and met, through her time in Puerto Vallarta, many happy gay couples striding the beach hand in hand, sharing romantic meals in the many cozy restaurants...and this time when she took the leaf from its sheltered place, she saw its true image. How wonderfully fitting, and perfectly characteristic of this patient, fateful universe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1401322812806-CVNG116F3N1IMYBT1KFG/photo+4-2.JPG Sold - Ode to the Matriarch (2013) Species: Black Cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) 33.2 x 26.3cm Although the quest for new images has been a main source of excitement for Dessie, her original source of inspiration—the cottonwood leaf—has continued to hold irresistible draw. The stately and iconic image of the elephant hidden in the leaf’s natural features is replicated differently in each leaf, resulting in pieces that are each truly unique. This elephant seems to embody a younger and more vulnerable soul, with ears flared and the veins of the leaf doubling as the veins in the delicate skin of its ears. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1421174769286-ZJ5X8WMJYHMCSAM3C616/Autumn+on+the+Island.jpg Sold - *Autumn on the Island (2013) Species: Bigleaf Maple (Acer macrophyllum) 50.8 x 60.9cm (hxw) This piece is comprised of Broadleaf Maple leaves that Dessie collected on Vancouver Island in the fall of 2012. She arranged them to show the full spectrum of the change that takes place from green to the eventual rusty yellow of a leaf that has been abandoned to the cold ground. The artist highlighted the beautiful veins by carving around the edges of the leaves, leaving the rest to display its natural colour. The signature is made with twigs and a small red leaf. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1460139372616-HJ4QJMBSE7VSQ2S0UWYP/mermaids%2B%282%29.jpg Sold - Freedom Dance (2013) Species: Common Fig (ficus carica) 26.5 x 18cm This piece is a landmark. Although many of the leaves Dessie Marshall has worked with are fragile and complex, this has perhaps been the most challenging of all. When she first examined the leaf it appeared to her as an octopus shape, which is an image that has been a recurring theme in her work. However, Dessie couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something more hidden in the graceful curves and angles. Finally the image swam into focus: three graceful mermaids dancing weightlessly up the leaf’s surface, like a mythical dream springing to life. The artist was intimidated at the thought of attempting such an intricate representational design in such a fragile leaf, but she knew she had no choice but to attempt, else forever wonder whether it could be done. The result is this unprecedented piece of art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1460420130632-QPBKR1CLYR8BYJTN3CUT/Alas+Ingravidas.jpg Sold - Alas Ingravidas (2014) Species: Elephant Ear (Colocasia) 100 x 80 cm Back in 2010, Dessie had attempted multiple times to create the beautiful butterflies this type of leaf represented to her, only to fail. The large tropical leaves always turned mushy and fell apart halfway through the carving process, much to the artist's dismay. It wasn't until she developed a way to dry them before carving that she was finally able to bring to life the visions she saw, and made up for her earlier losses by creating three in one piece. By mounting them on a clean white canvas, a weightless and airy contrast is presented with minimal support provided by the addition of fern leaves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1484874605486-CIE8MTFMNHH9VZ6MFZE8/In+Search+of+Knight.jpg Sold - In Search of Knight (2015) 44 x 35.5cm Dessie found this leaf in Puerto Vallarta, MX, but did the majority of the work while in Oregon, USA. The unique asymmetrical shape of the leaf, and the fact that it had a large bite taken out of it by some type of ravenous insect, created the conditions necessary for her eye to pick out the forms of two beautiful horses. At first she had pictured them fighting, but when the piece began to take shape it took on more of a joyous embodiment. The forms seem to convey the vigorous and forceful energy of two stallions in the prime of life, and when the artist asked her fans for help naming the piece, this clever play on words won out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1526260182793-QY4I3MU0H4CQQDCP4BD8/IMG_3605.jpg Sold - Piece by Peace (2017) Species: Rhubarb (Rheum rhabarbarum) Dimensions: 61 x 50.8cm Once Dessie made the embarrassingly late realization that almost every leaf carried within it a symbol of peace, one of her first goals was to find it in the largest leaf possible. Enter the simultaneously humble and impressive rhubarb plant, whose beautiful spreading leaves are normally discarded in favour of their flavourful stems (the leaves themselves are actually quite poisonous, curiously enough!). The size of this specimen was large enough that the artist was able to incorporate the landmasses of our precious planet in the circular portion of the design. Like the achievement of peace in the human world, the process was one involving a large amount of slow and careful effort, with no shortage of faith. Taking her representation a step further, Dessie mounted the leaf on a canvas painted with a blue spot on a black background speckled with white spots. The end result is this breathtaking expression of world peace, floating in the endless expanse of outer space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1488250591053-XZ7Y9LME80585ZIRJUEY/Por+Amor+y+Vino.jpg Sold - *Por Amor y Vino Species: Grape (Vitis vinifera) Dimensions: 30.5 x 30.5cm This piece is Dessie’s first experiment with combining paint and leaf carvings. The story begins in Mexico, where in 2015 the artist was planning to drive north to Canada and exhibit along the way. She was welcomed to Valle de Guadalupe by an old acquaintance named Alejandro who had once been a neighbor in Sayulita, and his lovely girlfriend Maria. They helped Dessie put together a stunning exhibition at the beautiful Hotel Quinta Maria, and their efforts and hospitality were deeply felt. Before leaving the valley, Dessie noticed some grape vines growing in the couple’s yard and picked some leaves, vowing to someday make a gift to express her gratitude. While carving, the artist stumbled quite accidentally upon a peace sign expressed in the veins of one of the leaves. Thus began her Peace Pendant project, which has been another truly fulfilling venture. From a place of giving, even more gifts have sprung! This piece has been imbued with the energy that reflects the best in the heart of mankind, and is fittingly expressed through a plant that has captivated the passions of so many. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452217218655-LRPA6NQ96DLULZSVH7IN/The+One+That+Flew+Away.jpg Sold - *The One That Flew Away (2015) For years Dessie had been seeking to find a dragonfly in a leaf for very personal reasons. Her best friend Shawna Holmen passed away when both girls were just 17 years old, and in years since, Shawna's mother had mentioned that whenever she saw a dragonfly she thought of Shawna. Dessie had resolved to find one in a leaf so that she could present it as a gift, and here it was hiding in plain sight on a type of leaf so closely associated with the actual creature! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1485199569904-M37QTLHNHF25EO67PCXT/IMG_2996.JPG Sold - Out of the Void (2017) Species: Common Fig (Ficus carica) Dimensions: 28 x 22.2cm This leaf waited patiently in Dessie’s collection for over four years until commissioned into existence. Her first creation of 2017, it was finished in one long sitting which is unusual for a piece this size. Although the artist has created octopuses in the past, this is the first to contain a level of detail that includes the suction cups beneath the legs (a monumental risk, as the finishing touch on an exceedingly fragile leaf). When compared to past works, a clear progression is evident in terms of refinement. Without altering the outside shape of the leaf, which exemplifies the typical characteristics of the Common Fig, the legs of this graceful creature have been incorporated harmoniously to its edges. The resulting impression is that of dynamic movement, which could be interpreted as a threatening posture--or, simply as effortless suspension in the void of the octopus’s weightless environment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1580932487933-44UREP3DZEQAGRUWJ6A6/Stregth%2Bin%2BFragilitySP.jpg Sold - Strength in Fragility (2017) Species: Breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis)/Dimensions: 42.5 x 31cm Dessie was shocked at the bold energy this piece radiated. No matter how many of the same creatures she finds in her leaves, each one takes on a distinct character. The lion is this breadfruit tree leaf exudes the kind of predatory confidence and scrutiny that can only come from such an iconic animal. The title was chosen to highlight the dichotomy that exists in presenting such a strong image through such a fragile form. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1546541241911-43IU8D76K3M8G3A5DGSS/Edit1.jpg Sold - Gibson's Finest (2018) Species: Fiddle-leafed Fig (Ficus lyrata) Dimensions: 38.1 x 76.2cm Created for musician and art collector Scott Shackell, this commission piece displays Dessie’s capacity for employing multiple materials to convey an image. The body of the guitar (modeled after a Gibson ES-335) was carved into the leaf and handmade paper was used for the foundations of the neck and head. The artist then created frets and tuning pegs with grass blades, and finished off the design using grass stems. Mounted on canvas with a skin of unique handmade paper, this innovative piece of art is the first of its kind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452217088522-9BQPETSXKPH7N6DOMSUJ/FullSizeRender.jpg Sold - The Damsel (2015) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 8 x 8.4cm Dessie had been searching for years to find the image of a dragonfly in a leaf, only to find it hiding in the most obvious of places—a lily pad. While visiting the town of Clearwater, BC with her father they stopped at Dutch Lake to take a walk along the shore. The edge of the lake was festooned with lilies of two types, one purple and one green. Even as she collected them, Dessie did not spy the image hidden within. It wasn’t until she began to carve an abstract design into the leaf edge that the dragonfly revealed itself. This particular one, with its large graceful wings and delicate body, struck the artist as more damsel than dragonlike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1452805273742-R38RJK04MEF7RPP2L74Z/10312467_1137862389575244_1495140480553133717_n.jpg Sold - Hidden in Plain Sight (2015) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 20 x 15.7cm Dessie had been searching for years to find the image of a dragonfly in a leaf, only to find it hiding in the most obvious of places—a lily pad. While visiting the town of Clearwater, BC with her father they stopped at Dutch Lake to take a walk along the shore.

The artist was looking through her collection when she spotted this fiercely armoured face among the crowd. Many may not recognize this particular dinosaur, but to those eclectic souls whose favorite is the Ankylosaurus, it will stand out immediately. The leaf itself was found in Boca de Tomatlan, Mexico, and was extremely brittle but Dessie pushed the limits in regards to the amount of detail it could withstand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1499909248100-8U9HOYDWU8NALGFLW0PP/FullSizeRender%2B%281%29+%281%29.jpg Sold - Fairy Companions (2016) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 10 x 9.2cm, 11.1 x 10.2cm, 11 x 9.5cm Dessie had been searching for years to find the image of a dragonfly in a leaf, only to find it hiding in the most obvious of places—a lily pad. While visiting the town of Clearwater, BC with her father they stopped at Dutch Lake to take a walk along the shore. The edge of the lake was festooned with lilies of two types, one purple and one green. Even as she collected them, Dessie did not spy the image hidden within. It wasn’t until she began to carve an abstract design into the leaf edge that the dragonfly revealed itself. This piece contains two different types of water lily. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1460400297909-72FB48KAYH3WKDQT5HZA/Leaf+Spiral.jpg Sold - Leaf Spiral (2016) Species: Boston Ivy (Parthenocissus tricuspidata) Dimensions: 48 x 38cm In 2012, Dessie visited Vancouver Island in search of the Bigleaf Maple. While there, she stayed a night at the Fairmont Empress hotel in Victoria and was absolutely struck by what she saw. The side of the building was covered in beautiful red vine leaves. Upon inquiring, she was given a tour by the groundskeeper and collected a number of leaves, which she stored in a book for over 3 years before dreaming up this striking composition. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1462841232788-YPRCU65R6J9B2QLGA5YA/FullSizeRender.jpg Sold - Scarab in Flight (2016) Species: Unknown Dimensions: 15 x 18.4cm While poring over her extensive assortment of preserved leaves, Dessie spotted one whose veins contained wing shapes. Intrigued, she studied the leaf but at first couldn't reconcile them with any type of animal she knew; certainly nothing elegant like the dragonflies she had been finding recently. When the image finally blundered into focus, Dessie laughed with the sudden memory of the giant Rhinoceros beetles she had seen in Mexico, whose very flight seems miraculous considering their large and ungainly proportions. They would fly into her friend's yard at night like drunken cargo pilots, careening around to eventually crash land against a wall and land helplessly on their backs.The leaf was hiding an image of their slightly more graceful cousin, the Scarab. As an added touch, the artist layered resin on the wings to create the effect of a wing membrane during the final preservation process. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1478976078196-A1ZP01DRNUOLU08N4FCX/Metamorphic.jpg Sold - Metamorphic (2016) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 33 x 33cm For quite some time, Dessie had been working with epoxy resins as both a way of preserving her work and presenting it. She decided the time was right to further explore the potential of epoxy. To begin, the artist settled on the popular subject matter of the dragonfly as a way of presenting something familiar in a unique fashion. Encasing the piece in a solid panel of resin afforded her the opportunity to include the many leaf fragments left behind by the carving process, and presented her with the challenge of how to include the signature. It was made by painstakingly gluing together tiny pieces of dried grass stems. The overall effect was truly dynamic. The dragonfly appears frozen in the height of transformation, the leaf fragments transfixed in the space around it. Originally Dessie had plans to remove the metal baking sheet from the piece, leaving it as a clear panel, but once finished she was intrigued by the concept of environmental-meets-industrial. The contrast was thought provoking and compelling...and it seemed to suit the title she already had in her mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1479161140951-M1IX5JD0OARAOKF7K7FA/Jewel+of+the+Marsh.jpg Sold - Jewel of the Marsh (2016) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 16.8 x 15.5cm Dessie had been searching for years to find the image of a dragonfly in a leaf, only to find it hiding in the most obvious of places—a lily pad. While visiting the town of Clearwater, BC with her father they stopped at Dutch Lake to take a walk along the shore. The edge of the lake was festooned with lilies of two types, one purple and one green. Even as she collected them, Dessie did not spy the image hidden within.

It happened to belong to a humble eggplant! The friend graciously allowed the eager artist to collect several specimens, and Dessie felt a thrill of excitement at seeing such irregular shapes in a leaf. This particular one contained two graceful dancers with masculine builds. Their featureless faces add an air of mystery to the piece, and when the artist asked fans on her art page what she should call it, one woman and her daughter suggested the current title. Dessie loved the name, for it adds yet another dimension to the viewers’ perception. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1487725563216-KFA3XYDRIIGY08DM0XLS/Formation.jpg Sold - Formation (2016) Species: Gooseberry (Ribes uva-crispa) Dimensions: 25 x 20cm Made with wild Gooseberry leaves which were collected in the autumn at the height of their colour, the artist arranged these leaves in a way that creates an interesting geometric formation on the background--both in the leaves, and on the blank space surrounding them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1490119867881-UUCVUPQJVWJ55CYMH23N/20170316_155207.jpg Sold - Lily Portals (2017) Species: Hardy Water Lily (Nymphaea tetragona) Dimensions: 40.3 x 30cm Dessie had been searching for years to find the image of a dragonfly in a leaf, only to find it hiding in the most obvious of places—a lily pad. While visiting the town of Clearwater, BC with her father they stopped at Dutch Lake to take a walk along the shore. The edge of the lake was festooned with lilies of two types, one purple and one green. Even as she collected them, Dessie did not spy the image hidden within. It wasn’t until she began to carve an abstract design into the leaf edge that the dragonfly revealed itself. Over the next year, she created several pieces involving dragonflies and decided to experiment with embedding some in a solid panel of epoxy. The result was this breathtaking piece, which truly showcases the vivid beauty of not only the elegant dragonfly figures, but also of the leaves themselves which are immortalized within a three-dimensional structure.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1577601449581-AJ8WKLDJSWIL2PBQJU3F/Edited.jpg Sold - Together Forever (2018) Species: Orchid Tree (Bauhinia monandra) Dimensions: 15.5 x 12.7cm $300 This leaf was collected from a small tree in Bahia de Banderas, Mexico. The silhouettes of two birds snuggling were quite apparent in one, and the subtle lines even pointed to a particular species—the lovebird. Being that they are such brightly colored creatures in person, Dessie decided to take a first leap in accenting the simple piece with vegetable paint. How fitting that Mother Nature decided to present to Dessie these romantic little birds in a leaf, which could then be immortalized by a careful hand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1620851269980-22UFKZPQ858APA98KW7D/Gallery+Image.jpg Sold - Irish Elk (2016) Dimensions: 27.5 x 32.5cm Megaloceros giganteus, commonly known as the Irish Elk, lived in Europe as recently as 7,700 years ago and had the largest antlers of any known deer, either then or today. This leaf had been buried in the artist's collection for so long that she hasn't the slightest idea where she found it or what type of plant gave rise to its existence. Dessie thoroughly enjoys finding extinct species reincarnated within the confines of a leaf, feeling that perhaps Mother Nature is paying tribute in some small secret way to the magnificent lives that have come and gone upon her Earth. In terms of magnificence, this one is particularly so. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1739157778460-VIAJ4DWY8STT48BQPTBI/Website+Gallery.jpg Sold - Warhorse (2021) Species: Western skunk cabbage (Lysichiton americanus) Dimensions: 29 x 62.5cm Despite not having created since her time in Mexico and feeling slightly intimidated by the ambitious vision hidden within its veins, Dessie decided to tackle an enormous skunk cabbage leaf as her first project of 2021. She began carving and slowly, the magnificent form of a stallion’s head and neck emerged. The leaf’s surface is lent a marble-like quality by the natural mottling which occurred during the pressing process, and this serves to enhance the statuesque appearance of this noble and powerful creature. The background utilized for this piece was a project unto itself. Starting with a base of fine canvas, Dessie arranged and layered handmade papers to create a multidimensional feel. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1739157976770-GOTMZOXTIWTRJN0X7LO2/Life%2C+Rearranged.jpg Sold - Life, Rearranged (2021) Species: Red Oak (Quercus rubra) Dimensions: 12 x 12cm Life, Rearranged expresses the concept that at an atomic level, energy and life itself is never eliminated but rather transformed into a different arrangement. The particles of the leaf are ingested by the caterpillar, and then take flight in the form of the butterfly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1739158929563-FHFA8J9B492QV4KBMQZT/20190705_160611+%281%29.jpg Sold - Burdock Lace (2019) Species: Lesser Burdock (Arctium minus) Dimensions: 23 x 21cm Burdock is a plant much reviled by most who know it. Its giant, incredibly adhesive burrs were the inspiration for Velcro but if cattle encounter it, the ensuing stress can severely affect their condition. Few, however, have taken the time to appreciate the magnificence of the leaves of the growing plant, with its fantastic marbled vein patterns and furry undersides. Dessie collected (very carefully) a few specimens of varying size, and this small one became a study of said vein patterns. The result was something marvellously reminiscent of lace, and she mounted it with epoxy onto a slice of birch log. This was the last piece created by the artist, before an unfortunate accident involving her dominant hand left her unable to create for an extended period. http://violenthippieart.com/contact daily 0.75 2016-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1375373806085-339G9Z20RE99B2FPHRF5/IMG_2444.jpg Contact http://violenthippieart.com/newsfeed daily 0.75 2023-03-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1489075914875-H7VTDV28NX48PYVWSCZS/20170302_133402_Richtone%28HDR%29.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1489075914630-8AX0OXRAOM9N4OOFT854/20170302_133611_Richtone%28HDR%29.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1489075967628-XIZ0CONK9GRXLOZMYN1H/20170307_103709_Richtone%28HDR%29.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1489075970610-XF6KF26YDY30WZ5T7FI5/20170307_103805_Richtone%28HDR%29.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1400985978014-369STW7TYIX9Z8EBBULE/Calavera+%232.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1400985979716-M6Q8RKOJ44YL2UBYF3JB/Calavera.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1401323254171-AOBG5U65AND0ZYH9HNYK/photo+4-2.JPG Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095578473-WE2D7NX3PLZ1HY3U6GLT/2015-09-06+14.47.25.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095621151-2IQUY5STEAIRUA8H169W/2015-09-06+14.48.37.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095791654-02QMKEFT4WM0WRHJ9D6A/2015-09-06+14.49.53.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095719795-XVZB1PGBHJH8TTYL9HRA/2015-09-06+14.49.36.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095466611-UV80THY46K88AM6Y5NS8/2015-09-06+15.03.47.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095506712-3CTOR9C0X5URYYR9DQ6K/2015-09-06+15.03.59.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095886518-OWHQ0S1MZHZ96Q04WNXC/2015-09-06+15.31.39.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095938599-0VA65H09DA7O20RNHZH8/2015-09-06+15.58.58.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1442095957626-G2POKZJVW0W2OVFBYB6Z/2015-09-06+15.59.14.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438108592247-UXE2BI7UHNZ4I2E0L964/2015-07-26+15.19.05.jpg Newsfeed Rick Wilcox and his fascinating display. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109075691-T9GVISKGZ0KQX41LKGHG/2015-07-26+15.19.18.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109106949-PSUHUNTKQ9MB1OUYPW8P/2015-07-26+15.19.36.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109157344-Q9NZMOMGQABRBZAL8U2I/2015-07-26+16.03.45.jpg Newsfeed What better place for leaf art? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109187420-JLUFHTWMKFYGM3A266OV/2015-07-26+16.03.57.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109207519-L64NJJ4HZNXKZ6FBIRZQ/2015-07-26+16.04.12.jpg Newsfeed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1438109255506-N1PCISIM93N0E1VGEWEQ/2015-07-27+11.22.32.jpg Newsfeed Spencer Hogan and Jeffro Uitto, two brothers with a passion for wood and storytelling.

Having no knife with which to cut the leaves, she decided to instead bite them from their stems, which worked quite well until she noticed a few minutes later that her mouth was burning and had the sensation of just having chewed on construction insulation. This unpleasant experience went on for about 2 hours, long enough for Dessie to take thorough note never to chew the stem of this particular plant again! The leaves, however, became beautiful butterflies and this piece is one of those. She split the stem (this time with a razor blade!) to create the antennas and worked carefully with the fragile surface to create the image of the majestic Monarch butterfly, whose migration extends from Canada to Mexico and back again…much like the artist herself!

leaf was a lesson in fragility for Dessie and really taught her how careful one must be when carving tertiary veins.

strange work of art almost didn’t survive the preservation process. The mysterious, somewhat haunted expression on the subject’s face is enhanced by the fact that the leaf began to decompose, leaving the face blanched and ghostlike. Dessie feels that this is yet another example of the collaboration between Mother Nature and herself in creating this art. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1419123753221-8PTEB54P9LNMQRM7IL95/Caballitos+del+Mar2.jpg Newsfeed - Caballitos del Mar 13.8x8cm (hxw) 15.5x7.3 cm (hxw) *Photography by Kenny Kan This delicately carved work of art was created from vine leaves growing in Puerto Vallarta. Although there were plenty along the wall of the friend’s house where Dessie was visiting, she climbed along the railing of a second floor balcony and reached out precariously to pluck the two which had caught her eye. The shapes of the leaves capture the essence of these secretive ocean creatures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1419123833510-28G853Q9ZLE7PESZHTAC/Sayulita%232.jpg Newsfeed - Sayulita #2 15.8x31.4cm (hxw) *Photography by Kenny Kan Dessie simply couldn’t help creating another coastline scene, a year after her first. The lines in this type of leaf set the perfect stage for the image, the composition of which allows the artist to use a mix of positive and negative space. This piece shows how even the most commonly shaped leaf can have a whole world of images hidden inside. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1419123936282-0Y1ZM1W2BBJXEWQOI0HV/Tres+Delfines2.jpg Newsfeed - Tres Delfines 10x22.5cm (hxw) *Photography by Kenny Kan Dessie risked life and limb to retrieve this leaf from the top of an almond tree in Mexico! There were plenty of almond trees on the street where the artist was living, but this one leaf stood out as the most vivid red of them all. She waited for several days before deciding that no other would do. Dessie climbed the wall of the football field and hopped out on the tree, straining to reach the precariously positioned leaf while a group of bewildered and amused senoras watched from their juice stand across the street. It turned out to be a good gamble, as the result was this meticulously detailed piece in which the veins seem to mimic the effect of rippling water. The middle vein of the leaf represents the surface of the water and the place where the positive and negative space is reversed, with one dolphin almost completely submerged while another is in mid-jump. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51f87b7de4b07d5d9e3e8bdf/1420434848586-WTXNFU7BSNA87CZVFKKC/Autumn+on+the+Island.jpg Newsfeed

(hxw) While on her morning walk up the mountain in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Dessie spotted an impressive Epipremnum aureum (commonly known as the Pothos Plant) specimen wrapped around a large tree. She had made a beautiful crane from the same type of leaf in 2010, and when she examined this particular leaf, she saw two! After a lengthy curing period, during which the leaf turned a vivid dark bay color, the artist set to work and uncovered this intricately detailed image.
