Two Little Leaves
Just a little bit of art to remind you of autumn's beauty. And because I had to practice painting leaves!
The one on the left, of course is real.

Your painted leaves are so realistic, I could barely tell them apart, especially the maple leaves. They are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour leaves are incredible, really beautiful. Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeletevery very very pretty! I can't paint so I do so enjoy looking at yours! Were you always artistic as a child too?
ReplyDeleteVery real . . .your painting, your leaves . . .
ReplyDeleteI might have to experiment with that lesson . . .
I painted today and used a new fan brush technique.
Fun to try something new . . .
Gorgeous leaves! I love how you captured the multi color effect they get when they change. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! They would make lovely little framed prints. -Jenn
ReplyDeleteAs they say "practice makes perfect" and I see you have already had a lot of that! Well done and beautiful Jeanie.
ReplyDeleteNice work! :-)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! At first glance, I actually didn't notice that one was real and the other wasn't! Well done, Jeanie!!
ReplyDeleteWell done:) Uncanny..guess what I painted?:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour leaves look great...very realistic. I agree with Lisa. At first glance I thought they were both real leaves.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Especially the second one.
ReplyDeleteYou're simply stunning, Jeanie, my dear, stunning, thank you for being so very special & unique !
ReplyDeleteHope you're having the best of weeks,
I'm sending hugs and ever much love to you

Stunning work Jeanie...If you hadn't pointed out the art from the real life, I wouldn't have seen it. :)
ReplyDeleteBoth real and painted are a Monet of excellence, Jeanie!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours and gorgeous work....
ReplyDeleteJeanie, you did a great job on the leaves...how I wish I could paint!
ReplyDeleteLove your leaf paintings!
ReplyDeleteSo so pretty, Jeanie. The red one almost looks real. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy November, my dear.

your leaf paintings are very very nice!
ReplyDeleteJeanie, you are soooo talented! The paintings are outstanding!
ReplyDeleteGood job you pointed out which was which, you're very clever Jeanie... maybe in my new life I should take up art?!

Nicely done. Realistic enough to evoke autumn's beauty, but impressionistic enough to make clear photography isn't necessarily the only good way to capture an image.
ReplyDeleteThe real ones and your painted leaves are beautiful, Jeanie! It's always amazing to see the colors fall leaves can have.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! The first look at the top picture I thought both leaves were real. It wasn't until I saw that you had been painting that I took a closer look and realized one was painted. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteWow, you picked two very difficult leaves -- especially the big red one. Those views of green are killer to do, since the slightest bleed would turn the whole thing a mushy brown. Well done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful artwork, Jeanie! I actually think it's quite difficult to paint leaves and mine never look as gorgeous as yours do.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful indeed! :-)
ReplyDeleteGoodness, Jeanie! I scrolled without reading at first. I didn't realize they were painted! Going back to read I looked closer. You have done such a lovely job capturing these leaves.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Do hang much of your work in your home?
