Colour exercise.

 
 
This morning
during my 2 mile walk
I came across the delight of 
a beautifully coloured leaf
which had recently
fallen to the ground,
the first true sign
that Autumn is
on the way.
 
 
 
 
I couldn't help myself,
like a young child caught in the
leaf's enchantment of
beauty, deep magic and wonder
I immediately picked it up
and thought 'colour exercise!'
 
All the while
on the walk back home
my thoughts were
consumed with colours
the primaries,
their complements,
the warms and the cools.
 
So, today I will venture
into the studio
with this beautiful leaf
and let the colours unfold
like leaves falling to the ground.
 
Let the colour exercise begin!
 
Stay tuned!!
 
Cheers, ~ Polly ~
