She said that topazes always reminded her of autumn, when the maple leaves fell. It was her favorite time of year.

Another sketch day. . . This piece more melancholy than most of my works, though I like to think that there is a happy side to it as well. If I color it, I'm thinking of doing the wall in a cool tone (light blue), the table in either natural wood or painted white, so the topaz ring and bright red maple leaf will pop. At the same time, I want the colors to fit together harmoniously, so we'll see what looks best.

@Heather F. R. Thank you! Emotional is exactly what I was trying for. :)

Oh, a soft blue would look nice. I'll probably do a color test next week, so we'll see how it goes. Thank you!

Very emotional illustration for that text! I think a soft blue would look lovely with the topaz and maple leaf.
