This piece is called "Leafing out of Fall". This idea came to me as I was walking outside in my backyard. To create this art piece I pulled some colored leaves off of the tree in my backyard. Then I went inside my house to get a water bottle. Next i decided to put the leaves inside the bottle like a vase of flowers. The end product looked very plain to me, so I decided to use my brother's baseballs to create a circle around the water bottle. That wasn't enough for me. Finally I decided to add the leaves that turned brown around the baseballs to create the idea of the seasons changing. Hence the title "Leafing out of Fall". A challenge I came across during my creation process is I couldn't get the leaves to stand up in between the baseballs. It took me a couple tries and a few adjustments to get the leaves to sit the way I wanted them to. It was also a struggle to keep the baseballs from rolling away. At one point the water bottle had fell over and all the leaves fell out. In the end I got the image I was looking for.
