These are descriptions of sketches in a sketchbook. I hope that my words evoke the pictures for you.
1 three children in bright red sweaters playing in fallen leaves 2 disheveled boy and girl cuddle in piled leaves 3 children helping parents rake leaves 4 old man in red raking leaves alone 5 autumn leaves windblown against a broken fence
