Fall Leaves


Fall is my favorite time of year.  I love the crispness of the air, wearing a sweater and walking through the piles of gold, red and yellow leaves.  I delay raking leaves all fall, (not because I'm lazy)  because I enjoy the rich colors.  This print is from a painting by Mary Emily Eaton (1873-1961) a famous English botanical artist whose works are in the permanent collection of the National Geographic Society, the New York Botanical Garden, and the Smithsonian Institution.
