Trees and fall foliage

I didn't manage to get much done yesterday after all. I found a great Somerset magazine called Artful Blogging, which featured Paris Breakfasts. I spent a glorious hour reading her archives, and dreaming of Paris, which took me off on a search for a good recipe for chocolat macaron, and Framboise Nougat, which continued on today as well. It is so easy to get sidetracked with surfing.


I have been looking at this little encaustic on my table for the past couple of weeks, trying to think of what I could do to replace little fern fronds, but I finally just decided that I like it the way it is, enough to call it finished. I tend to prefer my artwork to be understated and clean, and I think this image is nice because it is simple. It is 5.5 x 5.5 inches on board.
