haha, i hear ya laure! we are down to a cool 90 degrees here in so cal! love your watercolors as usual!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit to a slight cooling, but not 30 degrees—not yet anyway! Hope relief is on the way for all of us and soon!
DeleteIt is time for those pumpkins .... Love your sketches.
ReplyDeleteYes it is, Lisa! Can't wait!
DeleteBeautiful work! Fall is my favorite season, too. I've been painting with my gorgeous new palette, I'm putting together on a blog-post, it will be up soon. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! You've already put paint in it?! Love a decisive woman!
DeleteWell fall has never been my favorite season because winter follows but you make it should delicious. So I will look at it with new eyes. Lovely paintings here. That leaf looks like it just drifted down onto your paper to sit for you to draw it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if we had more of a winter, I wouldn't like fall so much, but since winter is a non-start around here (usually), I look forward to the break from the heat!
DeleteThat leaf was fun...very meditative and I think it shows!
Love all your sketches, but especially the leaf. It is so dimensional, I really thought it was a real leaf, not a sketch. And in Oklahoma, all fall has meant is the temps are in the 90's instead of over 100, so I hear you!
ReplyDeleteIt will be cool before we know it, Cheryl! Thanks for the comments on the leaf. It's a favorite!
DeleteAutumn is my favourite time of year too Laure' though it's spring right now for me and that's pretty good too, but I do love that hint of crispness in an Autumnal day, bright with sunshine and blue skies. Your brushwork, as always totally delights me
ReplyDeleteSpring has it's own beauty and certainly different...I think I don't love Spring as much as Autumn because it means the end of cooler weather. Still, it's so nice to see things blooming and the birds and bees and butterflies!
DeleteIt looks like fall outside, but it doesn't feel like it yet! I'm counting the days until the first real cold front.
ReplyDeleteIt's coming! It's coming!
DeleteAh.... I felt myself sort of 'melt' as I read your description of Fall. I hadn't planned on taking the Autumn class this year, but right now I can't seem to resist. I'm looking forward to the class!
ReplyDeleteGlad you'll be there, Claire! Autumn is just too special to miss!
DeleteI love your fall colors and spirit! Makes me want to go out and kick leaves. I loved doing that in the MidWest. Here the rains usually come before there are enough leaves on the ground to kick .... but I might get lucky.
ReplyDeleteOh, how I used to hate raking leaves! Now I don't mind so much. Hope you get lucky with those leaves, Elva!
Delete...mmmmmmm.....I love your fall interpretation. I hope mine is the same. I've never looked forward to fall so much in my entire life! (love, love the pumpkin and leaf. No one does fall stuff like you!)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kelly! As busy of a year as you have, I'm not at all surprised. Hope it slows down and you can enjoy it!
DeleteLove your pictures. Glad I signed up for the class. The leaf is unbelievable. Fall seem to be too fleeting here in MI. We get such cold, dreary days and the winds blow all the beautiful leaves off way too quickly. Would you tell me what the brand/type of paint box you showed by the pumpkin picture? I'm looking for a paint box that suits me. I have several and haven't quite found the right one.
ReplyDeleteHi, Clare, that is an Angora Watercolor box. The Angora watercolors are very inexpensive watercolors and they used to be available through Michaels. Now you'll have to do a search for them online (eBay may have them) as Michaels now has their own inexpensive watercolors.
ReplyDeleteThe little palette is plastic. I removed the paint and added my own. I also add a couple of extra slots for additional colors. Hope this helps!
Let's talk!
