    I’m back from a long holiday, but my muse/mojo is still out there somewhere.
    Last week I just got as far as the underpainting, but here it is.
    , inktense on canvas board.

    This week I attempted to create a batik=ish background, crumpling and dabbing, ruined several pieces of cheap wc paper, and this is “in the spirit of WDE”.
    acrylics on wc paper, dunno how long I spent.

    Maybe next week!
    Thanks, Li, for hosting!

        I love the leaves. The crumpling technique is perfect for that effect and you really got the look of water! I’ve always loved that marble reference but I’m too chicken to ever attempt it. I really like the blending of the reflections.

            The marbles look promising…..
            The leaves work well. A real splash of autumn colour.

                        You managed to capture the glass shine on the marbles even if it is just an underpainting.

                        I like the batik effect on the leaves. It works very well with the wrinkled nature of fall leaves. Wonderful colors there too.

                            the marbles look good to me, it’s just the one on the far right that’s a bit hidden. i’d hang that! it’s joyful. never heard of batik, looks cool, have to look that up and note to self, test inktense on canvas. do you have pans or pencils?

                                I adore how you created texture in both of your pieces, it reallly gives it character and life. Jove your choice of pallet for each as well. Thank you so much for sharing them with us.

                                        I love the textures on both of these. the leaves are really spectacular.
