It is cool and crisp today, love the fall weather.  It is a great time to paint changing colors of the leaves.  This painting was done as a class demo.  We started with and under-painting, did negative painting, and then painted on the leaves.  And we ended with dry brushing and splattering.

"Fall Leaves" by Martha Kisling

FALL LEAVES
Original Watercolor - 11x15
SOLD

I love this time of year when there is a hint of fall in the air - crisp, cool nights, leaves changing colors and pumpkins for sale at the grocery store. When I painted Fall Leaves I used real leaves to stamp shapes on the paper and then added other leaf shapes and details around them. This has always been one of my favorite paintings and it now lives happily with Charlotte in Virginia.
