I forgot my plan to share some of my pinterest finds until a couple days ago, so now I'm back on track. There's just so much inspiration out there, I love sharing what I've seen so that I might be able to introduce you to a new artist or inspire you to try something new......
Here are a few from my Art: Trees & Leaves board:
![" SURRENDER TO EVENING " Ford Smith](https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/54/71/28/547128f70cb7affe8a27a8a396117364.jpg)
Surrender to Evening by Ford Smith
![Saatchi Online Artist Ellen Dittebrandt; Painting, "Above my head "](https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/c4/3b/34/c43b34a7eae8871ad411ac9fc194699e.jpg)
Above my Head by Ellen Dittebrandt - I love the use of color but also the unusual perspective
![Paula Zinsmeister: Cut Trees - intaglio, aquatint, etching, collage](https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/74/e0/f2/74e0f24cb986742ee52a602398c703af.jpg)
Paula Zinsmeister - printmaking - this style totally inspires me to use my own photos more (a long time goal)
I have a ton of gathered fall leaves - I need to try this!

Great doodled, painted leaves by Shelley Malone via Flickr.

Isn't this an amazing watercolor tree? No link to a site or artist.....let me know if you recognize it. [ed: thanks to Michelle A for recognizing the artist, Brian Payne.]

I love interpretations of birch tress - this is simple and elegant; again with no artist info/link.

Finally, a medium close to my heart: collage. I love the complexity created by using various pieces of text. by Noli Novak (she also does amazing stipple portraits)
Hope you find a bit of inspiration - you can see more of my tree pins here.
