AVA- As a fashion stylist who never studied painting or sculpture before, Lei learned the unique skill of leaf-carving through self-study, after finding a unique pattern in a fallen leaf eaten by worms years ago.
"It's very complicated to make a carved leaf. The selected leaf needs dozens of processes like dipping, trimming, kneading and many artistic skills like painting and paper-cutting. It takes several months to finish one single leaf-carving artwork," said Ting, explaining the challenges of her artwork.
In addition to traditional patterns, Lei plans to create a comic strip on a series of leaves and tell stories through this special carving art.
