This took me ages. I had no idea what I was doing. I still don’t really understand. It looks cool, I guess. I like the concentric pattern in the middle. It ended up being very “Vaporwave” by accident but I like it. It’s definitely not as complex as others, unfortunately. I guess it’s almost a meditative piece, focusing on the cyclical existence of plant life. Hence the lost petal.
