Translating from Turtle to Tkinter, drawing Moroccan Mosaic's

Question

I would like to reproduce the beautiful Moroccan Mosaic's as seen here. The code is using Turtle. I would like to translate that to Tkinter. I have had some luck modifying the the code in an answer here to draw on to a canvas. Of course there is a lot missing as there are no lines being drawn from the origin. I don't know how to do this. One thought is that I could possibly overlay n polygon, each though rotated some 2 * pi/n degrees. This still leaves the problem of getting the line from the origin to the initial and final points for each polygon. I don't think this would quite solve everything but it is a great start.

Or maybe it is simpler to somehow to get the polygon's to rotate around the center?

from tkinter import *
import math
canvas_width = 400
canvas_height =400
python_green = "#476042"

def polygon(canvas,sides=10, radius=100, rotation=0, translation=None, outline=python_green, fill='White', width = 1):
   one_segment = math.pi * 2 / sides
   points = [
       (math.sin(one_segment * i + rotation) * radius + canvas_width/2,
        math.cos(one_segment * i + rotation) * radius + canvas_height/2)
       for i in range(sides)]

   if translation:
       points = [[sum(pair) for pair in zip(point, translation)]
                 for point in points]


   canvas.create_polygon(points, outline=outline, fill='', width=width)

master = Tk()
w = Canvas(master, width=canvas_width, height=canvas_height)
w.pack()
polygon(w,outline='green', width=2)

mainloop()

You can use the same code without the need to "translate" it to tkinter - all you need is to create a canvas and then use RawTurtle to draw on the canvas directly.

import turtle
import tkinter as tk

root = tk.Tk()
canvas = tk.Canvas(root,width=600,height=600)
canvas.pack()

#below code same from the linked source
myPen = turtle.RawTurtle(canvas) #changed from turtle.Turtle()
myPen.shape("arrow")
myPen.speed(1000)

def drawMosaic(color1, numberOfSides1, size1, color2, numberOfSides2, size2, numberOfIterations):
    for i in range(0, numberOfIterations):
        myPen.color(color1)
        for j in range(0, numberOfSides1):
            myPen.forward(size1)
            myPen.left(360 / numberOfSides1)
        myPen.color(color2)
        for k in range(0, numberOfSides2):
            myPen.forward(size2)
            myPen.left(360 / numberOfSides2)

        myPen.left(360 / numberOfIterations)

drawMosaic("#980C6B", 8, 80, "#DD6BB8", 5, 70, 20)

root.mainloop()
