One of my favorite times during art workshops with Ann K. Lindsay was the sharing time we had after working on a particular assignment to see all the different ways other artists in the class saw and interpreted their experience with watercolor. We not only had the joy of viewing many artists' styles, but we shared what we enjoyed about our own experience, as well as, what we wanted to see happen differently.

Grace described her leaf painting as "fun and relaxing" as she watched the colors blend. Visit her lovely blog and her post about her leaf painting at Grace and Simplicity.

Why Leaves Change Color
Thanks so much for sharing my leaves. It was a great way to really look at leaves in a more in-depth way and really study the variety of colours and marks and veins on them. Now I'll have to try layering leaves - it sounds like fun too.
ReplyDeleteIt was my pleasure, Grace. I so agree with you on seeing leaves in more depth as you consider drawing and painting them! Thanks so much for introducing yourself and sharing you leaf explorations!
