    I love the folkart style of painting, I made these about 3 years ago and noticed today when I finally remembered to hang the Autumn one on the door that I had not finished painting it nor had I shared them with you all. Hopefully at some point I will get the chance to add some Autumn touches to it.

    I don't know that we have ever had an orange moon in the fall, it is usually a gold color. That moon has some orange highlights tho.

    Our moon is orange too. Rather beautiful, isn't it? There are nights where it's closer, and seems to light everything up. A shame you miss out on the orange-ness, toni.

    Shine on Harvest Moon ..............

    redrose

    Is a person who knows........Thanks for saving my neck.
    Yes it is bright and beautiful.....I always wish I had a telescope to see it closer.

    The little kids call it a pumpkin up here.

    Texas has everything else so it won't miss an orange moon.

    Haha, funny you should say that 'cause I was actually gonna say it often looks like a pumpkin, but for the sake of not sounding like a youngster, I left it out. :p

    Toni I really think your door signs are lovely. :-D What touches are you thinking of adding to the autumn one? All the beautiful colours of fallen leaves would look great sprinkled across the green of the grass. I hope you discover more of your work hidden away as I really enjoy seeing it. :D
