Happy Fall!

Hi everybody, happy fall! Is it fall yet?  In Tampa it is still 90 every day so I tend to lose track of the seasons...one thing I really miss about living in MA is the beautiful trees when they are changing.  And the apple picking.  And wearing jeans and sweaters. And real actual pumpkin patches. And the chill in the air....where was I? Yes it is a beautiful time of year for many parts of the country. I was inspired by autumn colors to make this little canvas of my adorable nephew.  I have been wanting to use this pic on something for a while and I'm seeing these jewel tone colors popping up everywhere so it came together pretty easy.  Thanks for taking the time to read and look! xox Sarah





Here are a few close-ups:
