I love the word autumn. In fact autumn is one of my favourite words. It's definitely my favourite season. And, the oak leaf, yep, it's my favourite leaf.
I had to look twice to check the date. Fall? Isn't it spring? I get so confused about time myself that for a minute I thought it actually was fall! Very lovely rendition of a fall leaf.
Terrific blog - and I don't say that lightly. Your illustrations are very evocative.
I do like the brevity of your posts. That is a definite plus for your readers.
And your artwork is so distinctive that you'll never have a problem with illustrating each post, which is a common problem for most bloggers.

Yep Jana - I'm a couple of seasons out....the story of my life!!
I really like this one. I think because it's quite simple and quite different from my usual style. I was going to add more put the skeleton of the leaf in etc but didn't. And I'm glad. Do you find that you like the pieces of work that are least like your usual style?
Oh and GCS - been drawing as long as I can remember. Sometimes I drew a lot and sometimes I didn't. Since I began this blog I have been drawing everyday. Thank you for visiting and the commenting guys. It's appreciated.
very nice. i'm always impressed by your work. i also love the word autumn, and had my second child been a girl -- "she" would've been named autumn. my daughter, summer, is the oldest. but, i had a son, an their father names him something creative -- scott (he was a II because i refused to have a jr.!). your posting just reminded me of that idea from 21 years ago!

very nice Andrea, I agree about it being simple and gorgeous, and its colour truly captures the feel of autumn. Oh, that handwriting is lovely!
