Ah, it’s the end of a radiant summer!
In North America, autumn is usually considered to start with the September equinox. Which means today is officially the first day of autumn!

for just this one moment,
before the spectacular colour burst of autumn floats around again.
Note: The name "equinox" is derived from the Latin aequus (equal) and nox (night), because around the equinox, the night and day have approximately equal length
Every week I add a new design with related tutorials. Be sure to subscribe to receive an email notification with design inspiration.
This is my ongoing creative workbook to research and capture design projects and techniques. You will mostly find ideas for floral art but I will also include some other projects such as gift packaging, cards and even cake decorating with a few lifestyle projects arranged in between.
Everything you see in this workbook was designed, made and photographed by me, unless specific credit is given to another designer.
