"Rakin' Leaves!"

Never thought "rakin' leaves" could be so, so "FASHIONABLE!"
I was looking for something autumnal to replace my Acura Integra car cover and stumbled upon this which was done in a fashion class at Art Center. The teacher loved the gouache painting, but wondered how it would fit into the daily deadlines of the fashion world.
She was right, but I just wanted to paint in goauche!
Who knew? Never thought "rakin' leaves" could be so, so "FASHIONABLE!"

I just heard on the morning news that the fashion world wants us to recycle, mend or reuse clothing instead of buying new clothes (WHOA!) to help reduce the carbon footprint.
So funny... Here's one of my tee shirts that a friend, Nikki Koehler Guza, brought back from her visit with family. It's about thirty years old. I think I'll recycle it when the minor league's team's logo, "The Nashville Sound," finally crumbles off of the shirt!


Second warm cup on a cold, grey, wet Tuesday!
