Saguaro Confetti Cactus

8.25x5.25 mixed media collage in junk journal done a few days ago painting over a failed still life. Collaged foreign country stamps are at the bottom. I used hard charcoal to sketch then watercolor, acrylics, ink (Staedtler calligraphic duo pen)for this imaginary saguaro cactus and its blooms. More lilac, purple, and pink was used in this version.
