Fall Leaf

Not much to say about this leaf except that the colors were amazing!

ARToberfest / day eleven

pumpkins & apples

I threatened pumpkins and here they are. This was super fun and I even surprised myself with how well it turned out.

What's your favorite fall flavor?

Our tradition: pumpkin chocolate chip muffins!

Hmm.

Just a smaller simplified rendition of day eight which I painted for my sis.

September Art Project / day fourteen

painting with kiddos / watercolor, colored pencil & ink

Had a good time hanging out with my friend's kids last night. Those kids love to paint!

After they were done painting, I went to put some dishes in their dishwasher. I couldn't find the detergent so I asked the kids where it was. They showed me - and since it was a different brand than what I normally use, I just squirted it in and hit GO.

Well, I'm sure you can guess what happened - soap suds everywhere! It wasn't liquid dishwasher detergent it was dish soap! I felt so bad - because I couldn't figure out how to just drain the machine. Of course, I wanted to remove all the evidence before they got home. I didn't quite make it. Shoot!

September Art Project / day ten / Art with Friends!

Roadside Sunflowers / pencil, watercolor & ink

Today Carlye and I got together to complete today's art project for our 30 in 30! It was fun to paint with someone - and while I was feeling nervous about painting in front of a 'real artist' it ended up being just really nice to talk & paint, drink coffee, accidentally dip my paintbrush in my coffee, and witness my daughter's antics as she joined us for this fun time.

"It's fun to paint with Mommy and Miss Carlye."

Sweet Pea saw these flowers on the side of the road and sometimes when the kid says, "PLEASE can we stop?" I just can't resist.
