2) Is the composition balanced or unbalanced? Do the formal elements, such as shape, line, and color, create patterns or a rhythm? What about the lines, do they guide you around the canvas? Are the sharp or squiggly?

The song i chose is AeroSmith- I dont wanna Miss a thing.
I want to represent some nighttime vibes, and make it romantic with the flowers popping out with vibrant colors. I always felt such a deep connection with this song. My boyfriend broke some terrible news about him having a tumor and i remember going to a sunflower field picking him sunflowers, and he would always get me roses. So i just dont want to ever lose a moment without him in this world.
Ten words or ideas that came to mind when i listen to this song are:
