These beautiful leaves are in my own yard. I had my husband assisting me while I photographed these leaves. He held them up in front of a strong light so I could get the light filtering through. He held them straight up and down and I said it looks better at an angle. He replied but it looks like a stoplight this way:) I love when my family comes up with good ideas:) When I was titling this one my oldest son said how about "Red Light, Green Light". How clever! This leaf painting a favorite of mine. I just love it!
I also thought I would show you the collage of my 30 paintings in 30 days challenge. I managed to squeak out 25 paintings because a few took more than one day. It is the first time I have ever challenged myself like this and I have to say even though it was a roller coaster of a journey I am so glad I did it!
