Brava, Jane!
The skies and leaf are so great. You manage watercolor so easily and it responds in its best way possible. Brava.

Bella la foglia e bella anche l'idea di mettere la foglia vera assieme allo studio, peccato la foto un po' scura ma me la sono copiata e schiarita giocando con i livelli in photoshop e così ho potuto apprezzare al meglio i magnifici colori autunnali che con maestria hai usato.
Molto brava!
Ciao Graziano

Wow! This looks almost like a photograph! The colours are beautiful :0D
I love doing studies like this. I have done a few.
I was surprised how much the leaf curled and changed as I drew, as it dried out.
I must do some more!

Is that a painting?? WOW! The leaf stand up off the page - even without distinct shadows. Excellent!

Oh, I hope that did not come across wrong. I just thought it was amazing to create that undulation and three-dimension on the leaves wtihout distinct shadows.
