Bead Addicts, Jewelry Making Machines & Connoisseurs of Handmade

October's Art Bead Scene Monthly Challenge - is a woodsy landscape with Woodblock Print on Paper, representing an "Owl on Gingko Branch" (Scops Owl Under Crescent Moon) by Ohara Koson, 1915.

This artwork reminds me of Dark Emperor & Other Poems of the Night by Joyce Sidman
"To all of you who crawl and creep,
who buzz and chirp and hoot and peep,
who wake at dusk and throw off sleep
Welcome to the night."

Are you kickstarting the fall / autumn season in your neighborhood exploring woodland trails collecting acorns, pine cones and leaves? Have you ever braved it out for a nocturnal walk to spot an owl? Planning a weekend trip apple picking with the family? 

Brandi's skillful COLOR PALETTE has definitely got me into the mood to celebrate this season, and here are my finds !
