About Laurence Cherniak
Laurence Cherniak on the cards | |||
Photographer and artist
LAURENCE CHERNIAK reflects, in his designs, the richness of the rain
forests, the serenity of wondrous sunsets and the abundance of wildlife. |
We are gently submerged to the realms of the ocean bottom at Cocos Island and then lifted to the top of the awe-inspiring Arenal volcano. We swim with sharks and watch the metamorphosis of butterflies. We are carried through the jungle canopy and led on a hike through rain forests. All these explorations are included in several of his very realistic paintings and photography, making these playing cards not only diverse in nature, but also documenting his mystical adventures. | ||
Laurence is currently working on his next pack of playing cards, which is a Souvenir of Costa Rica. We are awaiting for some pre-view images to arrive. |
