Falling leaves

 

Last autumn, I woke up one morning and it looked like the world had been lit on fire.  All the beautiful green leaves on the lush trees behind our house had turned bright, bright, bright shades of orange and yellow and red. 

 

This year, it seems like more of the leaves are turning from green to brown and then right off the trees.  But I'm holding out for one last surge before they're all gone. 

 In the meantime, I'm painting as many different varieties as possible as they change from one color and shape to another. 

 I think leaves must be like snow flakes.  No two are exactly the same!

Happy Autumn!

Halloween loot

Halloween is such an evil holiday.  Not only do people dress up in all sorts of ghoulish ways but then they tempt you like the snake in the garden of evil with delicious soul sucking chocolate bars and twizzlers and marshmallow ghosts with day glo sugar.   It's hard for even the strongest angel to maintain some semblance of willpower on this day. 

Fortunately, I managed to snag only ONE health... errr heath bar for my spoils. 

hope every one got just what they wanted for their halloween stash!

Wednesday Journal

Usually, I find that time flies, especially when I have more to do than I can possibly get done, which is basically how I live my life.  This week, however, despite being incredibly busy, time seems to be standing still, torturing me.  You'd think that I was a kid, expecting Santa down the chimney this weekend, but no dice.  I'm not quite sure why I'm so anxious for a weekend this week, but ready I am!  

In the meantime, here is a little snippet of doodles from my Wednesday journal page:

Three days in a row for Blogtoberfest-- woo hoo!
