Autumn

"Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting
and autumn a mosaic of them all."
~Stanley Horowitz

I've had this picture for over 15 years, I think.  It came in a book of Mucha postcards that I bought from the gift shop at The Museum of Modern Art.  I remember the day we went to the museum, the gift shop, the book, and most of all this image. I love the look in her eyes, her gypsy kerchief, and the way she's perched in the tree listening to the call of the wilderness. Makes me think of fortune tellers, Halloween, being in the woods in Autumn.  All the things I love about this time of year.
