Three Muses--Nature

This week's theme for the Three Muses challenge is Nature--almost too broad to quite get my head around; so many different ways to go. After scanning my digital stash and coming up empty, I tried a different approach and looked for words of inspiration instead. I found this quote from Galileo:

"The sun, with all those planets revolving around it and dependent upon it, can still ripen a bunch of grapes as if it had nothing else in the universe to do."

and here's the result.

The grapes and solar system diagram were Googled, and the butterfly is from Free Collage Images on Flickr. The rest was done with brushes.
