DIVA Challenge 240/Birthday Leaves & INKtober Day 21

This week the DIVA challenged us to be inspired by the season. I love fall and all the beautiful colors of the leaves.  I sketched a simple leaf on a tan tile and added watercolor.  Then I tangled in 2 shades of brown Micron pens.  I shaded around the outside and added highlights with a white charcoal pencil.  I really love how the leaves shimmer and shine on a nice bright day in the fall, so I added some clear glitter gel pen on top of the white highlights.  It is very pretty on the tile, but does not photograph very well. This is my INKtober Day 21 also.
