"Cider Apples"

"A Painting A Day"
to Benefit The Lake County Haven

5" x 7" Watercolor on Paper

Autumn weather ushers in the harvest season. September is a big month for apples in Illinois. Cooler nights bring sweet, colorful apples in so many varieties, freshly picked from a recent orchard outing.

Back to a my more traditional painting style for this piece and a fun bird's-eye view for the composition.

A perfect little piece to help me celebrate my favorite time of year!

"Why do we need so many kinds of apples?
Because there are so many folks.
...It provides more contact with life,
and leads away from
"uniformity and monotony."



-- Liberty Hyde Baily
