Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #287 'Leaf Maiden'

'Leaf Maiden'



If you've ever wondered whether street graffiti is art, wonder no more. This is a masterpiece bringing a definite answer. I was overwhelmed to find this. Using ivy as hair is an idea worthy of a genius. The difference between this and moronic signatures, one can find all over the place, is immense. To set the record straight let's venture a little further following that thought.

Owning a pen will not make anyone an author, nor will owning a camera make anyone a filmmaker. It is simply not in the tools. Mind, skills, ability, talent, affinity and so on are far more important than the newest equipment in every art form. Writing a "to do" list isn't comparable with finishing a novel even though both actions are done by writing. The same goes for graffiti. What we see here is profound street-art, while most graffiti simply isn't.

The subtle use of colours is extraordinary for street art. I believe the person behind this art has formal art education. Notice all the gentle tones working with each other. The blue lines, in-between hand and face, are remnants from a scribble that was previously there. Too bad it wasn't removed entirely. I'd seriously prefer that.

Notice the simplicity. The whole idea is brought up with only a face and a hand holding white flowers. The major and most interesting part of this image was already there just waiting for someone to discover and use it.

A gentle Goddes of Flowers or Leaf Maiden protecting nature, and also made from nature, is what I see here.

Enjoy! :)
