I like the impression that you gave them a quick glance, so that they are moving towards the left, and your head is moving right.

The leaves seem to be like water coming over some rocks by the edge of a beach.

A lovely painting.

Dear Julian, wonderful melting mix of plummy hues. Can't stop gazing at this little jewel!
Is late summer still lingering in your garden of Eden?

like your gorgeous plums, my garden (in western Mass, USA) is falling to the ground--browned leaves, overblown blooms, others gone to seed, all winding down now, while it seems only a week ago we were exclaiming how perfect it was and summer was at its peak

Dear Julian, the blues-purples-mauves coming from the dark shadows indeed make this mysterious and mesmerizing.. Thank you for this beautiful gem..

Dear Julian, wasn't going to fuss but I also wonder if all is well, maybe you are all on a break before the next lot of courses. The inbox seems so grey without the postcards!
