Oil on Canvas, 16 x 20 in

If you look closely, you can see a yellow leaf stuck to the surface of the painting. I was not quite in the mood for literal representations, and riding a light breeze of abstraction when that leaf fell into to my painting and brought it to life. Not sure what will happen in a few weeks or months when the leaf has succumbed to further decomposition, but I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.
