Japanese illustrator Macoto Murayama uses a computer to create incredible digital images of flowers. The artist does not invent fantastic plants - the flowers in his drawings are real, existing in real life, but presented from the point of view of their geometric and mechanical structure.
Looking at the artist's interpretation of flowers that have been familiar to us for a long time, you begin to doubt that they can grow in an ordinary garden; his digital work makes him understand much better the complexity and intricacy of the natural world.
Plants are usually perceived as living things with organic forms. However, according to Makoto Murayama, this is just one of their sides. If we take as a basis the inorganic characteristics of plants, then you can get images that are different from the usual ones. In this regard, the viewer has the opportunity to see other, unusual and attractive images.
The author believes that all objects have a superficial and internal content. Usually the superficial is enough for people, and they admire it. However, the inner content, as a rule, is much deeper and more important, and flowers in this regard are no exception. Therefore, the goal of Makoto Murayama's work is to show people how captivating and exciting the inner world of familiar plants can be.
The works of Makoto Murayama have some special, unique charm, combining "scientific" and "artistic" features. Transcending the usual boundaries of botanical images in his work, the artist showed us a new vision of flowers, united in the series “Inorganic flora”. This includes images of a sunflower, rose, lily, gerbera, chrysanthemum and other flowers.

Chinese painting is as complex and delicate as the whole East. You can not understand it, but it is impossible not to admire it.

Flora from fauna. Strange wax sculptures by Rebecca Stevenson
When factories smoke, cars hum, oil tankers crash in the oceans, and there are fewer trees and more and more hemp in the forests, only a lazy sculptor or artist will refuse to play the "green card" in his work. We are talking about the artistic interpretation of such popular topics in recent years as the closeness of man and nature, the peaceful coexistence of people and animals, environmental problems and catastrophes threatening our world. London also participates in this "flash mob"
Flora and fauna in fabric paintings. Textile artist Annemieke Mein
Australian textile artist Annemieke Mein is called the founder of a new direction in art, namely, textile sculpture. True, the name is conditional, and it would be more correct to call the artist's works volumetric paintings created in a mixed technique of applique, embroidery and painting. But even in this case, Annemieke is a pioneer, and today, relying on her talent and many years of practice, she writes books, leads master classes, arranges presentations in order to transmit

Positive painting. Plush cats Makoto Muramatsu
If there is no cat in the house, then the house is empty. At least that's what the people say, and personally I more than agree with this statement. Surely, the Japanese artist Makoto Muramatsu, whose positive cat pictures have been very popular on the net for some time, also agrees with him
