The Three Muses Challenge - Back to Nature

September 1 is the first day of Spring in Australia so, for my BACK TO NATURE challenge, I have chosen flowers as the subject of my collage.
This is a very open theme and we are expecting the usual wonderful mix of styles and interpretations.  The sky is the limit!  Any aspect of nature, funny or serious, is welcome.

Credits for my sample picture are HERE

It is beautiful, congratulations. I like the color combinations. I am painting through synesthesia which makes me see colors when I hear names and numbers. These colors I transform in paintings. Colors are my life.
