Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC") is on summer break. That means its members are free to continue publishing awesome collages of their choice. Since we won't have a contest image to work from, we have the option to choose any previous contest photo or any appropriate image from the Community's whitelisted sites. For this week, my theme is serenity.

If you'd like to join in the freestyles during the summer break, just create your collage and post as normal according to the Rules in the LMAC Community.

Serenity Among the Elements

Since serenity is my theme, I wanted to portray showcase one of my recent fractal art pieces. The image is striking in a shell that includes what resembles a ball. I called it the serenity ball of consciousness.

I included elements around it to suggest one's peaceful state in this natural setting. The fire and ice captured in the filtered image I located of a man's face depicts the internal turmoil that must be cleansed in order for the purity to emerge.

To create the collage, I uploaded all images into Canva to take advantage of my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.

With the help of the remaining images from the LIL, I was able to combine a lovely scene in emerald color. The feel is one of serenity. As a contrast, the image of the monk dressed in white from @quantumg perfectly conveys purity of mind and body.

We all need to slow down sometimes and meditate and your collage shows it nicely. The serenity ball of consciousness is awesome.

You have such a gift for creating fractals. I think you see things...wonderful things, and then you work toward realizing what you see. It is a gift.

The collage is beautiful. So happy you are participating in LMAC's freestyle. I have been busy so I've yet to try my hand. Early next week for sure.

Thank you for using my fantastical fish.
