I'm so excited about fall. School has begun, the temperatures are lowering and I'm beside myself with happiness. Fall's just sooo thrilling. There are football games, hayrides, and the pumpkin patch. Not to mention my favorite accessories such as boots, scarves, tights and shawls. There's just so much to LOVE. Pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie. And the soups! Chicken noodle, taco, and potato-corn chowder, to name a few. Oh, the goodness of fall. You'll probably be sick of hearing me talk about it by the end of the season. :D
Also, I'm the featured artist today over at
Paint Party Friday so if you have a moment,
check it out!
LOVE your picture :)

DeleteCongratulations on being featured on PPF. Well deserved. I'm so happy that you love Autumn. I always loved it too when I lived in the States and one of my best friends goes gaaagaaa over it like you do...so I'm sure she influenced me. We live in a hot, humid tropical climate...year round and I MISS cool weather.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think I would too, but I've always wondered what it'd be like to live in nice weather year-round.
DeleteCongratulations on your feature at PPF! I love your colorful and easy going art style. Blessings!
