I thought I would share a few pictures to go along with the previous prompt blog post from a few days ago.

Hubby was getting ready to mow our lawn and I had to quickly get outside and grab a few leaves off the ground.

Use the following photos as a reference. Pick and choose the leaves you want to sketch.

I placed this trio together to show as an arrangement example.

So many leaves to choose from. Lovely colors!

Here’s a quick watercolor sketch I created in my art journal. Notice I kept my sketch simple for now. I’m learning to sketch loosely and not get caught up in the details.

I hope to spend a few minutes this weekend with my fountain pens and inks and see if I can recreate a few pen & ink sketches of my leaves. Stay tuned!
