Fall watercolor painting

So happy it's fall, my favorite time of year!

I went outside and picked up some leaves.  First I painted my paper with watercolor in warm colors and added salt.

 Then I took 3 or 4 leaves and traced them, some of them more than once.
 Then I added some greens, browns, and golds to the background.
 Then I drew some sticks in the background and used darker blues to intensify the background colors.

Last I painted thin lines on the leaves.  Hope you like it!
