The Cultivation of Enlightenment • WIP

 A very colorful background (seriously, this paper is gorgeous and I wish I had more chances to use it) which evokes an out-of-focus garden; a pretty bit of chiyogami to cover the ragged bits on the back, which no one will ever see; and the base cut layer for this small commission piece.

The piece, and these oddball flowers (which are absolutely real, by the way) start to take form, petal-by-petal.  All that’s missing is our mysterious protagonist in the bottom corner (Who could they be?  What is their connection to this strange flora?  What ominous and/or benevolent motives guide them?  Do they suffer from pollen allergies?).

Extra points if anyone can ID the weird dangly flowers.
