“Harvesting Pumpkins” 11′ x 15″ watercolor on cotton rag paper
Late in the game I ran into another challenge on the ‘net: this one was on Facebook and called The First Annual Autumn Arts Painting Challenge and Competition.
If you have the time to browse through nearly a thousand paintings take a look. I don’t think the creators of this challenge had any idea they would get that kind of response! Needless to say you have to sift a lot to find the good ones but they are in there.
My hasty submission was a reprise of the pumpkins I did last year in oils; I was curious to see what I could do with watercolors which are quite the mystery for me. But, isn’t it all?

Leslie, this is a beautiful watercolor! Of course, watercolor is my favorite medium and I end up loving it all. Great composition, truly and proof of the wonder and beauty of autumn!
What a delightful painting. Reminds me of those glorious fall days in Oregon, how I miss them.
