November Tree

November Tree, 8 x 6" Oil pastel on paper

I love pastel.  The layering and the colors are always so intriguing! Here I've given a "feel" for the season.  Can you hear the rattling of the dried leavesin the wind?  Maybe you can hear the swish of the tall and dried grass as well. As things dry out and the weather turns cool, this is what we see in November!

I love your description here-the rattling of the dried leaves in the wind, swish of the tall grasses, it makes the painting alive. Good color use, very nice color, use of the sillouette shape of the tree to show up the complimentary colors in the background.
