Stirring the Leaves Up
For Illustration Friday the word is 'stir' and I tried to get away from the obvious spoon and bowl or cup.
This is a girl enjoying stirring up the autumn leaves, but then who doesn't enjoy doing that?
Watercolour pencils and pen in my sketchbook.

I love it! =) It's such a happy drawing, and gorgeous work on the leaves and her proportion
Fabulous! You've really captured a joyful moment.
What fun! Such zing!

I still do that and I am not a little girl any more.
(and I am not ashamed for it either!) ;-)

Thats a fun picture, and I just love doing that with leaves : ) An activity my dear husband doesn't enjoy as much as I do... But I still do it (lol).

What a lovely little sketch! I love the colours and the movement in it, but especially enjoy your interpretation of the word "stir". Very original :)
I'm in love with this illustration! The colors, the movement... I can feel all the fall fragance throught this image! Thanks!
