BERRY EVERGREEN

There's something about spending time with nature that is so refreshing. I remember walking through vibrant crisp leaves in Autumn; it's a joy to

see the how the seasons have transitioned. It was very necessary to wrap up warm this time, as the winds blew and the clouds started to give way

​ to rain. The cypress tree leaves curved with the wind, and even with the elements turning, I'm glad I brought my palette and paints with me...
​

The lengths of the pampas grass plant billowed gently in the breeze. The wheat-like fronds reminded me of the Mademoiselle Privé​​ exhibition,

where Coco Chanel kept wheat bundles in her atelier for good fortune. Rain dew settled and the winter chill blew through my hair: I

might as well embrace the temperamental British weather! Rose bulbs provided bursts of colour; it won't be long until they bloom into life.  
​

​Spindly branches remind me of a network of threads entwined on a fabric canvas. Crimson flashes entered the subtle colour palette,

complementing the rich greens and white sky. Windswept, the swaying tassels of my scarf mimicked the carefree branches. The bead-like berries

​ from the holly bush glimmered like rubies against the evergreen. They would be perfect to add a vivid touch to some art.  

The majestic fir tree brings back the festive feel of the months just gone. In the distance, a cluster of ivy-entwined branches stood tall and inviting.

Treading through, it felt as though I had entered an enchanted forest...I half expected fawns and woodland creatures to make an appearance!

Weaving between the sturdy lengths, creeping ivy guided the eye towards the skies.
​

 Sky-sweeping leaves formed a canopy above, creating an otherworldly feel. Imagine an arching doorway leading to a captivating landscape...
​
Glimmering gold beads and berries glistened away, where creating art is a way to remember the mood of a magical day.
