We all come from childhood, but if some of us manage to remember the dreams of a young age just by closing our eyes, the incorrigible dreamers are not ready to let go these exciting moments of life and turn them into ... their profession!
That's exactly what the hero of our essay did: the artist-propmeiker from Los Angeles, Jedediah Corwyn Voltz, who in the daytime develops the scenery of TV and cinema, but at night, using the remnants of working materials, creates tiny miniatures of everyone's favorites children of houses on trees, but only on potted flowers!
"At the age of 9-10 years, I got carried away by the construction of defensive forts for games." - says Jedadiah. "But I will not be mean, because each of us can tell a story from childhood about secret bases and staffs on a tree with ropes stretched between them for the transfer of important messages. Only here the scenario was repeated from year to year - the first snow fell, my friends said goodbye to their favorite entertainments until the spring, and I ... And I suddenly realized that my mother had a good collection of flowers in pots! "
His first tricks-rework Jedediaya began with the parents' room pots, and now in his own house and yard practically do not find plants or trees without an "architectural" extension.
"When I first got under my arms an oat-shaped thick-skinned mother (indoor plant), inspiration was unstoppable! I immediately built a tower on the top of the flower, and then became so carried away that I felt like I was looking down from its height to the crown of an imaginary tree. I wanted to recreate all the realistic sensations. I began to add a level by level, decorating the construction with living quarters. And even more - I thought about everything to the smallest detail, beginning from how people will make their way there and settle this secluded place! "
To date, the collection of the Gededai collection of 25 miniature compositions. On his bonsai, thick-skinned (succulents) and cacti, "tiny watchtowers, small houses with household utensils, like hand-woven carpets, furniture and paintings, windmills and even water wheels" settled ". Well, all the necessary materials for creativity the artist simply secretly brings from the main job, as an unnecessary remnant of production.
And despite the fact that the first exhibition of miniatures of Jededia was a little less than a month ago, the demand for flower houses turned out to be unprecedented, and plans for the near future have already outlined the release of "designers" for everyone who wants to collect the same songs themselves.
But his most important victory, Jedadiah still believes in unity with nature:
"My goal was not just to set something up on flowers. All buildings do not interfere with the plant, but are harmoniously complemented and even grow with them! "
