Autumn is now upon us as we pack up the pool toys, send the kids back to school, harvest our gardens and get ready to make our Fall homes happen!  Fall themed goods, pumpkin spiced food and drinks and Halloween costumes have been out on the store shelves for the last few months, but most of us prefer to simply make our own homespun season at our own pace.  I've just started my creative to-do list for upcoming home project planning and I thought I'd go ahead and share some seasonally themed publications and how-to draw videos all in one place to inspire your upcoming creative Autumn adventures. Enjoy the season and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE, Like or leave Comments on my YouTube Channel !   

  One of my favorite Autumn themes are harvest time Scarecrows and gatherings from the pumpkin patch.  Not only do scarecrows stand guard over our gardens, but they do a marvelous job of displaying a wide array of colorfully repurposed clothing!  Best of all, the theme carries through from the first days of autumn until the Thanksgiving harvest celebration concludes.   I decorate my home and outdoor living spaces with all the incredible colors and textures of the season, from leaves, acorns, woodsy animals, happy scarecrows, leaf wrapped lanterns, apples and pumpkins galore and bows of calico and plaids.  So fire up your imagination, gather up the harvest and let's simply Fall into Autumn smiles!   Need some fabrics for seasonal inspiration?  You'll find my fabric, wallpapers, home decor items and more in my Spoonflower Shop!  The above image features  Starecrows Scarecrows print, Brush Stroked in Ivory print,  Pumpkin Patch Scarecrows print, Naturally Brown Burlap print, 

September is here so it's time to get your scarecrows on!  They're fun, they're silly and they're so easy to make.  Just grab your autumn colors, your brushes and your imagination and let's GO wherever the creative winds may blow us!  You'll find dozens of seasonal scarecrow characters and autumn pumpkins at Annie Lang's Book Store .  You can download the .pdf version of " Scarecrows in the Pumpkin Patch " right now or order the paperback edition from Amazon.   Want to draw your own characters?  See how Annie Lang creates her Scarecrows with a digital pen in Photoshop in this short YouTube video.  If you work with digital art, you'll enjoy mix and matching Annie's Scarecrows Character Clipart to make your own Autumn fun!  You can download these characters and more at Annie Lang's Creative Market Store.
