Rangoli: Flowers and Bees

This is a stylised drawing of flowers (red) and bees (blue). The flower has four petals and is made up of the telugu letter vi. the first lesson in symmetry is we cannot have a five-fold symmetry and extend it infinitely. But there are a few flowers with four petals. The bees are in blue, made up of the telugu letter ri. viri in telugu means flower. Enjoy and comment!

By the way, the svAstika drawing was made up of the tamil letter Ta.
