Raku Inoue, a Japanese artist, creates miniature sculptures of dinosaurs by layering kiwi vines, white spruce, and boxelder maple. The leaves' ribbed, veiny textures evoke the reptile skin of some of the Jurassic Park film's most well-known characters.

For example, the dandelion-headed, brontosaurus while the stegosaurus has prickly raspberry leaves on its back and a velociraptor laced with forget-me-nots on its back.
