My Creative Space - Red Leather

My creative space is full of red leather leaves today.

I've had this wonderful piece of red leather for a while now, waiting for the right project to come along....

I started these last night, thinking to add them to a flower. 

But the leather is quite thick and heavy and I found the leaves way too pretty to be half hidden under the petals of the flower.

I settled on these colours for the veins, yellow, caramel and a deep, rich chestnut.

Maybe I'm -subconciously- getting ready for fall......

Tickle Me Tuesdays - Approaching Fall

I know that Autumn is officially well and truly underway, but around here we're still in the last throes of summer. Only now that the air is chilling slightly but gradualy can we begin to think of the approaching cooler weather.

These are the images that are putting me in the mood for the season:

1.This perfect depiction of Snow White by PalePreoccupation.

2.This 'I Love Autumn In New York' print by Raceytay.

3.Aah! The Haute Couture issue by Paolo Roversi , September 2011 for Vogue Italia.

4.Another favourite photographer on etsy, TCapone and this perfect fallen leaf! I can't get over these colours and the crispness of the image.

5.A capelet in deep red burgundy.
