We found some pretty leaves and some nice pinecones, acorns, and samaras. Few trees are changing colors yet.
I captured a few quiet moments to do some leaf rubbings and still life drawings.
Fall Nature Study
Elizabeth focused on the acorns.
Katie enjoyed the leaf rubbings and really wanted to do a rubbing of the acorn, but it was too “fat.” haha
I love the concentration on Tori’s face here.
Alex was quite fascinated by the leaf rubbings and enjoyed his abstract drawing of leaves. He was too quick for me to get a picture in action!

I loved seeing all those cute little faces working on their leaf/acorn journal sketches and rubbings. Thank you so much for sharing your entry with the OHC.
They are too cute. Feel like I haven’t seen you guys in so long. Will try to drop off your pan tomorrow.
They look like they are having fun :)
