9 . 28 . 2014    .. Along Deep Creek Road....... east of Malad Idaho

                     9 . 24 . 2014  Autumn colors along a distant mountain range of Idaho....

"I saw old Autumn in the misty morn, Stand shadowless like silence, listening.  To silence, for no lonely bird would sing,  Into his hollow ear from woods forlorn, Nor lowly hedge nor solitary thorn; -  Shaking his languid locks all dewy bright, With tangled gossamer that fell by night, Pearling his coronet of golden corn".   Thomas Hood (1798 -1845)

           Another autumn painting.....  Watercolor    8" x 9"... mountains of southern Idaho...

This was my demo for today's watercolor class....A little something of autumn....  Didn't get to finish it for those that were watching... ended up doing more hands-on show'ing and telling with what they were doing..  A fun day.     Finished it up the following day....



"Go, sit upon the lofty hill,  And turn your eyes around,  Where waving woods and waters wild do hymn an autumn sound.  The summer sun is faint on them -  The summer flowers depart - Sit still - as all transformed to stone, except your musing heart......."    Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1833)
