Tonight was the first of the fire festivals, so I iwas off gallivanting for a bit. I decided to do something useful when I came back. As I had found my leaf punch yesterday I decided on leaves!

I basically used a brown paper envelope  and threw loads of dipping inks on it in random patterns.

The other side has more yellow and orange and less green.

I tried the punch out when the paint dried and if I say so myself  they look rather good. Yeah I know I am meant to use real leaves, but it has been raining a lot, it was pitch black and the wind was up.

I will show examples tomorrow.
