Curated Collection, Autumn
You may have noticed that all my curated art posts recently have been autumn themed. Its actually all the same collection, on Society6, that I’ve been adding to every week. I wish I could buy them all, but I just don’t have enough wall space.
Here are this week’s picks, and check out the whole collection here.
Wordless Wednesday, Fall in the Mountains
Blue Ridge Mountains, NC, October 2016
Curated Collection, Autumn
I’m in full fall mode, loving all the beautiful colors of autumn: oranges, reds, yellows, golds, and browns. I’m also impatiently awaiting my annual fall foliage pilgrimage. Until then, here are some more beautiful artworks to my Autumn Collection that I created on Society6.

Curated Collection, Autumn
I’m still loving everything fall, and most likely will be right up through Thanksgiving. So for this week’s curated collection I chose some beautiful, autumn artworks, all found on Society 6.
In my Sketchbook, Maple Leaf
Here is a recently completed sketch of a maple leaf.
I started with just a rough outline, first in pencil, then traced in pen.
I added color using water color paints. I usually like to use markers, but I really wanted something soft and more blendable here.
I’ve started building up and darkening the lines. I had some trouble with this. My favorite sakura pens weren’t working very well. I think maybe because I used a mixed media paper that the paint didn’t really soak into? I don’t usually use paints. Instead I used a gel pen, I had no problems working over the paint, but I feel like the lines aren’t as clean as I would like. Its hard to tell on the computer screen, and really, it won’t bother anyone but me.
The finished piece. Overall, I’m pretty happy with this, and I’ve started a digital illustration of this same design, which I plan to have finished in the next few weeks.

Curated Collection: Autumn
Its September 1, that means it is the beginning of fall! My favorite season. Yes, I do know that the official start of fall isn’t for another 3 weeks, but I just love it too much to wait. So, here is a beautiful collection of Autumn Leaves artworks I found on Society 6
I’m ready for cozy fall fashion (even though it is still too warm for sweaters here), gardening with mums and pretty pumpkins, fall scented candles, warm drinks, and hiking in the woods.
What are your favorite fall activities?
