Botanical Art

These plants are botanical illustrations, which I painted with watercolors. I started this type of illustrations 4 years ago.

I was working in an advertising agency and I was tired of staring at the computer screen for 8 hours. I was looking for something real, then I got sick.  One morning I was drinking lemon tea and I found a seed. I peeled it, put in the wet paper towel and after a while it germinated.
Later on, there was a little tree and then I found this idea to paint it. So day after day I was painting tropical plants, flowers and this became to me a meditation form, an escape from the digital world.

Now I am working both, as a digital illustrator and as a fine artist, who is painting botanic pictures.

I hope you like this!
