Each week, the LMAC Community run by 
The LMAC Community also offers an opportunity for members to create "freestyle" collage themes and post to the Community. In the freestyle option, you have more freedom to design your creations without having to incorporate the weekly contest photo. You still, however, have rules in which you must abide by when posting to the Community.
For my Freestyle Collage No. 82, my theme is adventure of the mind and soul.
When we examine philosophical viewpoints from the greatest thinkers in history, we must include in that group of individuals Socrates and Plato. These Greek philosopher helped shape Western culture. But we should never forget the female great thinkers of our times. One of them I mention is Mary Wollstonecraft who authored "A Vindication of the Rights of Women". She also fought for women's rights. Mary died in childbirth, but her daughter survived.
Her daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, gave us Frankenstein. One of the most memorable quotes from this epic book that I love is "Beware, for I am fearless, and therefore powerful."
In preparing my theme, I decided to venture into the realm of female thinking. For an example of the female, I chose a free-sourced unusual image of a woman with a tree tattoo on her back. Other images include my pure fractal that resembles an abstract image. To take the female out of this world, I added an image that depicts the universe. Below are the images I included to complete my theme:

When compiling my freestyle collage design, I upload images to Canva. I utilize Canva as my design program to blend my images. Below are the procedures I use that incorporate the tools at my disposal in my Annual Pro Membership Subscription.
To a blank, white canvas, I added my pure fractal that resembled an abstract image.
Changed canvas background to black. Duplicated the fractal, then positioned the parts on four sides. Decided to colorize each section for texture and variety. The last element was a create a space displaying the black canvas background.
Added the universe and my white ball fractal to surround it. Positioned fractal on top of the universe image.
Added the female image.
Removed female's background. Added frames. Repositioned them on the canvas.
Added landscape and other images inside the frames.
Added the spider image, and other headdress accessories to the woman's head. Completed the project
Below is my completed collage:
