I started working on a little piece today that I think I'm going to call "Last Leaf". We've had a long, hot summer and an autumn with unseasonable warm weather but today that all changed...rain and snow fell across the valley and the cold northern wind has done an effective job of relieving the trees of the last of the reluctant leaves. The original photo that I used for my inspiration was taken by Dini Esplin, a talented photographer from Spring Creek, Nevada. When I saw this photo I knew this would make a great painting and I hope that I can capture the emotion that occurs with seasonal transitions. This "WIP" (work in progress) is oil on a 12x16 inch canvas.
