A twig of gumnuts and leaves that I picked up off the ground at the Blue Montains in the weekend.
The Blue Mountains is a two hour train ride from Sydney. The towns and villages inthe Blue Mountains all feel very European - conifers, azaleas, houses with chimneys (it snowed there very briefly on the weekend) . But when you look out over the valley and out into the distance it
is purely Australian ! 
The rugged cliffs, ranges and eucalyptus go on forever and are beautiful.

I love this, Alissa! I remember your previous gumnuts drawing, too, what a great pair.
