Autumn Glow

I took a Saturday morning walk around my office complex when the leaves were still intact. My goal was to shoot entirely in manual mode on my DSLR camera.  The air was crisp and the light was perfect for capturing the leaves' final "hoorah".  This image is one of my favorites--I love the glow and the bokeh.  


Celebrate the season with a print!

Pumpkins Complete!

The finished product is Yummy Pumpkin goodness!  This one was fun and turned out a little cartoonish with the highlights and bold colors.  I really enjoyed painting this pair!

Pumpkins in Progress

My family went to a local pumpkin patch and selected a few small pumpkins for our table decor.  Since carving the small ones was challenging, I chose to paint a pair instead.  The appropriate tool of choice?  A palette knife.  :-)
