I did one literal translation, a softer translation, and now I'm doing more of "colored and patterned" inspiration. I'm not too sure if it is too busy or not, but I tried to incorporate all the elements of the inspiration piece without reverting back to the circles. I was more interested in picking up the elements patterns and colors.
I used mellow moss as my base. I rolled watercolored vines in artichoke on my base.
I used basic black and soft sky, my dragonflies are stamped in brilliant blue, (it's a stencil shhhhh don't tell anyone!)
Then I used my real red, and apricot, stamping in more mustard. I felt it needed something else so I added the lovely rust ribbon, and a brilliant blue piece along the knot.
