A dense botanical collage: hundreds of separate cut out printed flowers, dahlias, daisies and blossom, layered edge to edge until no background is visible at all. Inconsistent scale between blooms, each one looking like a cut piece of printed paper with a visible edge, soft faded palette of pink, cream, sage and pale blue. Flat lighting, no depth of field, the whole frame filled evenly.
