Inspired by Nature

I love looking at the colour combinations on our hill and around the shoreline and then translating them into colour palettes for projects. Especially where we live,  our beautiful surroundings provide such inspiration, and it seems that nature has sensibly chosen warm, earthy colours to clothe herself in the winter - perfect for keeping us warm and cosy inside, too. I've been working on colour palettes for a couple of adjoining rooms in a house nearby, both with Adams fireplaces and large windows...I don't think I need to look further than just outside the back door...

...looks like those two lads (Messrs. Whistler and Turner) had the same idea...just shows that all the best ideas aren't necessarily original...but they stand the Test of Time.
