It was 4th November 2010 that I first posted the colour of fallen Sweet Chestnut leaves and noted that they were the exact colour of our beautiful and foxy dog Chip. Twelve and a half years with us, my son Josse and I collected her as a tiny bundle from Ilfracombe Dogs Trust rescue centre in May 2002. I'm so sad that she died last Monday, I miss her terribly.
First chance last night to sketch these seasonal leaves which always remind me of her...
Waiting patiently for me outside the studio a few weeks ago...
...from my seasonal colour sample notebook.
