The leaves are all off the trees in woods behind our home. Everything looks so bare--we had quite a rain and windstorm last night.
Haven't done any painting yet (still recovering--very well, thank you--from my knee replacement.)
So I thought I would post a watercolor of Mawbry Mill (in North Carolina). I painted this one Autumn after visiting the area.
This is off the Blue Ridge Parkway--just before you leave the East end of N. Carolina.

Still taking it easy from my knee replacement, so I haven't done much watercolor. I made this card last year after we had been in the Smokies in October for a beautiful Autumn Color display. I painted every different leaf I could find of every different size and shape and put them all on one page.
This is what we are looking at right now in our own backyard. The only thing that makes me sad is the cold weather and winter that this beauty introduces!
We will make the best of it and look forward to Thanksgiving with our wonderful family!

I made a notecard out of this little picture to send to my friend, Tammy, who gave me the Birdhouse.
She really liked it, so I thought I would post it.
I'm kind of "in the house" for a couple weeks recovering from my second total knee implant--and thankful that things went so well!
