Fall Leaves in Water



Yes, these are fall leaves soaking in my corning ware dish! I did this to preserve the colors as much as possible so I could use them in my artwork somehow.

My neighborhood has no trees so I picked these leaves up at my kids preschool. It is located in a college town with beautiful old homes and tons of gorgeous trees. I just love the fall and its colors and wanted to capture them. My last two attempts to bring leaves home resulted in them drying out as they were left in the car. These were starting to dry so I wanted to try to save them. I will share the art with you when I am finished :) Take care!
