Did she mix some vats of die and then drop dribbles on the leaves to check the colors?
Did she have a wish to go two tone...?
I'm sure there's a very scientific reason why these mottled leaves were at my feet on this summer morning, but I prefer to think of my friends who dye and wonder what they would make of these beauties and if their yards are filled with splattered leaves.

Beautiful patterns, the first one really does look painted
ReplyDeleteSo interesting, and pretty! A scientific reason, probably, but I like your idea better. :)
ReplyDeleteI thought they looked painted too. I hope this doesn't mean your leaves are turning already, but maybe so with too many overcast days this summer.
ReplyDeleteFunny how one person sees what others overlook.

They're beautiful and so unusual! I actually thought you'd been experimenting and painted the top one yourself!
ReplyDeleteNo splattered beauties like these happening in my garden yet ... this is quite the collection, Penny!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've seen splattered leaves like that - how fascinating!
