'Scattered'
Oil 6 x 6
When I was a young girl, one of my favorite places
to be was up in the branches of a tree. It became my own
secret fortress, and I could climb high and view
the world from a whole new perspective.
To this day, I still revere the majesty of all trees, and
although I don't climb as much as I used to, I still
collect interesting leaves, branches, seeds and the
occasional empty nest.
This is the second of my study of some oak leaves
and acorns I collected last Fall.
If you would like to see more of my work,
Thank you.

Yeah some friends, I was feeling all alone and I love having more nuts as friends....
I want to know if you had trouble getting that French easel up that tree to paint these leaves and acorns? LOL You can make a great painting out of some of the most simple things in life...gives us all a new perspective or retake on things we take for granted.
Very funny, Manda...
Thanks, Pat - actually with my guerrilla pochade box it wasn't that difficult...ha ha!
Not all the nuts are in the trees?? Love the composition!
I like the colors, the gray against the warm leaves and acorns. I found an acorn last week in my box of shells that I was using for class. I guess I am a collector of stuff too.
