Thought I would share some highlights of my noon-time stroll yesterday along the river…of course, all I had was my iphone {as I wishing for my ‘good’ camera!} but… nonetheless… it was COOL. {literally and figuratively!} And it provided inspiration for my sketch {below}… I hope you enjoy it, too…
And a fresh new coating of Fall {en} snow!
Cloudy and calm.
Those leaves that hadn’t fallen yet … well, they got their little stems froze off!
This is a beautiful one, isn’t it?
I had such a good time with my splashes… may have gotten a little carried away, not knowing when to stop??!
I just loved the sweet curly-curvy brown edges on that leaf. I used my Peerless, and Inktense pencils for watercolors to attempt to highlight it… while I didn’t quite get the effect I wanted, it was very fun.
The leaf is my version of a project from the class “Wild Art of Abandonment-2” class from Christy Tomlinson, taught by Junelle Jacbosen. COOL.
Can you believe October is fast leaving us ~ going to gone… gone… gone?!

Love it! I was just talking with a friend yesterday about Fall and Fall colors – I was saying how Fall is a comfort to me – not sure why it just is………
