I haven't painted botanicals in awhile. I did this quick sprigs of leaves sketch using a Princeton petals brush size 6.

My neighbor passed away recently, and the last thing he sent me was this article, saying:
Nelson,
Just like you said, Leave the Leaves.
Say hi to the baby.
I don't normally share the New York Times, but this one is special to me.
One thing I learned from the article is that leaves are useful to wildlife all year round, there's no time of year where you can destroy or remove them without hurting creatures living in them.

One more batch of striking photos of the temples Nanzenji (南禅寺) and Eikandō (永観堂) along the Eastern Mountain Range of Kyōto or the Path of Philosophy (哲学の道).
The first batch, including climbing up the huge gate of Nanzenji, is at https://hcommons.social/@SteveMcCarty/115706568145190275
It hasn't been reported in the Japanese language news, but I heard sirens and ducked into the back of Nanzenji to walk along a little-known path along the mountainside by the old canal that runs from Lake Biwa to provide fresh water to Kyōto. But the rescue trucks went to the exact same place, and I saw rescue crew looking into the canal, and men going up with at least one stretcher. I didn't stick around, though, and I left, past gawking East Asian tourists. What did they want to see? I just wanted a contemplative walk, but it was an odd coincidence.
