"Fall is my favorite season in Los Angeles, watching the birds change color and fall from the trees." (David Letterman)

"Bittersweet October. The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause
between the opposing miseries of summer and winter."
- (Carol Bishop Hipps )

Happy weekend, all!

As much as I love autumn, summer and winter are not opposing miseries in my book. ;-)

Cris, Artist in Oregon said...: Yes Autumn is pretty transitioning into winter with all the leaves turning gorgeous colors. Unfortunately they FALL and have to be picked up around here. bags and bags and.. well needless to say A LOT of bags.
Love your painting.

Cris, I head home from this trip on Oct 16th--not too far off. The best part of my trip is coming up! Then off to Ann Arbor Michigan next...

Hi, Laura! I really loved your most recent water paintings--brilliant!; October 10, 2008 at 8:39 PM
Cris, Artist in Oregon said...: The best part being heading home?
I am having fun traveling around with you from home. :))); October 10, 2008 at 8:41 PM
A Brush with Color said...: No, Cris--the best part is I'll be seeing the entire state of Washington! It's such a vast (and vastly interesting) state. I'll be ready to head home when I can, of course, but I do enjoy seeing it all. thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it, too. I've taken tons of pictures--some are on flickr:
