I think you are finally here...

Welcome Fall 5x7 canvas board

 I do! 
I think Fall may have finally made her entrance.
I live in southern Cal & although it was in the 90's last week...today 
it is cool, overcast, and perfect.
I love autumn weather and can't wait for...

changing leaves
cool breezes
boots (although I am a die-hard flip flop wearer)
turtle-neck sweaters
Pumpkin spice lattes (made at home!)
cuddling up in cozy blankets
pumpkin patches
Thanksgiving


I just love it!
Fall used to be my absolute favorite season. 
Now, I love each season for their little unique characteristics. 
I can't choose a real favorite...but, I am very happy that Fall is here! :)

I am looking forward to carving out some time this week in the studio and to work on my poor little ETSY shop that has been empty for months...
I mean, months
I am really anxious to work in my art journal too. I was watching some wonderful YouTube videos from Roben-Marie. So fun to watch!

I hope you are enjoying the arrival of Fall!!
Do you have any Fall favorites??


  XO,
Jen

  1. I love fall, too. It is hard for me to admit to this at first, because I LOVE summer and flip flops and my teacher's vacation to recuperate...but autumn is such a beautiful time of the year. I love butternut squash and soup made with it. I love when football and hockey season begin again. I love Halloween and Thanksgiving and cool nights and hoodies. Hot coffee is better in the fall, too. And I love the September skies. Happy autumn to you and your family! Kathy

  2. We don't have fall in the Philippines. hahah Though during the last months of the year, temperature here lowers so we have our own share of the cold season. What I love about the fall season are the fashion because I can use my jackets and I just enjoy the cold breeze and the spirit of Christmas around. Happy autumn to your family and your paintings never fail to amaze me.

  7. This art piece really shows the wonderful feeling of Fall--for us here, it's the season that gently eases us into Winter :-( and it's never long enough!
    She's perfect!

  8. I dig your style. I think it's great that you don't put faces on your girls. I can never seem to get features just right.

  9. Oh...Fall! I love Fall. As a little girl, I grew up in Colorado. I experience the perfect Fall: cool, crisp, amazing colors. Then Southern California...Fall comes late but it comes. My bones ache for the cooler weather. Ha! I love to wear sweaters, clogs and scarves. There is noting like hot soup on a cool autumn night! The shorter days make me peaceful and I love to hunker down at home, watching the long shadows in the late afternoon.
    Now, I am in Arizona. Fall it here, too. I know because today will only be 100. :)
