Assemble the subject from flattened leaves, petals and thin plant fragments, using their natural shapes, veins and overlapping edges as the image vocabulary while keeping the material dry and pressed. Big shapes only: silhouette, proportions, large color areas. Subjects may be re-posed to suit the style. Below fingertip scale use only pressed leaves, petals and veins; translate A compact corner arrangement of leaves and curled paper, isolated as a cutout: one dominant large pressed leaf with two small leaves and a curled cream paper strip, grouped in the upper right corner pointing diagonally down and left, in sage, cream and warm brown, with generous empty space around.
Light: soft flat light with gentle shadows under the leaves; palette of sage, cream and warm brown; airy, natural, ordered.
Square 1:1 frame, centred composition with breathing room on all sides. Isolated on a fully transparent background, alpha = 0 everywhere outside the artwork, not white, not coloured, no checkerboard pattern, a real alpha channel; every element complete and unclipped with a wide transparent margin all round and a soft semi-transparent contact shadow under each grounded element; plain and unbranded, no text, no logos, no people.
