Sitting on my bus quickly sketching nearby maple leaves, in the morning sun, new growth, drooping, not yet spread their leaves up, but a soft new green. Melrose Barn @ Garden Valley & Cal Henry Roads. Sketching from my school bus on break, the view over an old wooden fence with teasel in front of it, to the sag roofed barn and shed across the field.
