Autumn

This is the biggest painting I've done in years! It measures 24x48 inches, or 2x4 feet. This painting was inspired by the pretty leaves I'm seeing on the ground every day when I go for walks. I was inspired with the idea of using the leaves as stencils. I was also in the mood to paint a woman with big, dramatic hair (haven't done that in a while--it was overdue). The color scheme is obviously influenced by fall. Such a pretty and mystical time of year--thought I'd try to capture it in a piece of art.
