Indonesian artist Teddy Asmara collects dry leaves from his hometown of Bogor, West Java and transforms them into impressive paintings which he later sells.<br /><br />The leaves used are yellow rubber manifold leaves and awar-awar leaves that are already dry and brown in colour.<br /><br />Most of the paintings ordered by customers are face portraits with the fastest production time of about three days or a maximum of one week.<br /><br />Asmara said: "I started working on leaf paintings in 2016. I made use of the dried leaves of organic waste.<br /><br />"Usually, what I paint is a portrait of a face there is one person or two people at the most."<br /><br />Asmara's art has only been marketed in Indonesia with one of his paintings sold for one million rupiahs to three million rupiahs (£55-£165).
