colours for autumn and winter 2010/2011

Wow, the first post!
I'm slightly cheating as I have already posted this on another blog of mine.. but I'm still enjoying these boards so why not share:)

I loved creating these. They are up on my studio wall reminding me to be inspired by COLOUR and colour combinations!
