This collage reflects my love for nature. It unites me with nature and expresses my yearning for the natural world. Through this work, I hope to inspire others to embrace nature and dare to pursue their dreams.

This collage is my feeling towards nature. Nature is an eternal painting. Every inch of land, every leaf, every drop of water contains endless beauty and power. It tells the flow of time with the change of seasons, and awakens the sleeping earth with the gentleness of life and the moisture of rain. It also nourishes the growth of all things. In the embrace of nature, we can not only follow the rhythm of nature, but also find the tranquility of the soul. It tolerates our humbleness and reminds us that human life is just one of the vast universe.
