Flower Fruit Portraits<\/h2>\n

When decorating with flowers, I occasionally mix\u00a0fruit and florals together in an\u00a0arrangement, but did you ever think you could make a floral portrait?<\/p>\n

Well you can. Look at these amazing floral-fruit-veggie portraits made by Klaus Enrique Gerdes.<\/p>\n

Klaus Enrique Gerdes, a New York City photographer, created a series of original portraits made exclusively from vegetables, fruits and flowers. The idea for his organic portraits first came to him while working with leaves. \u201dWhile I was photographing a human eye that was peeking out amongst hundreds of leaves, it occurred to me that I could actually utilize leaves to construct portraits or masks.\u201d It just evolved from there and he started using fruits, vegetables and flowers.<\/p>\n

If these pictures inspire you to try a floral portrait but they are much to overwhelming to attempt, check out these floral faces by Justina Blakely.<\/a><\/p>\n

Still feeling overwhelmed? \u00a0Well then go grab some dandelions from your yard and make a\u00a0a happy face. \u00a0And she will smile back at you as a reminder of your\u00a0creative potential. \u00a0Go for it!<\/p>\n
