I really love the round canvases and have worked previously on them for a 'fruit' series.
I thought it would be interesting to move away from a portrait or landscape format for this and allow the focus to be more about the colours and patterns in an abstract way, and focus on interesting detail, rather than showing the leaves in their entirety (as I have in previous diptych and quadriptych works of leaf subjects) 'Swept up in you' seemed perfect to describe both my love and inspiration of leaves and their colours - as well as literally 'sweeping them up' out side my home regularly!!
