In Preparation for the Fall

 

The Fall has been kind to Erie. The rains have been few and gentle and the lake is keeping us warm. This day is not the first 70 degree day of the month, nonetheless the leaves are starting to change. Here are a couple of paintings from the summer, the top one early, the bottom one most recent. I'm still making excuses to use the Alizarin Orange. The bottom painting has doors that open up and inside there is a strange little bone and wood construct that I didn't photograph, so you will have to come and see it yourself. It is a most unusual relic.
