I worked with Natalie on this day and we got our inspiration mostly from Andy Goldsworthy. A lot of his pieces show a shifting color change using leaves or rocks, etc. We decided to work in the parking lot -- right at the entrance. The line of leaves represents a crossing over from the man made world into the natural world. the leaves are held together with pine needles that we weaved through them. Instead of making a straight line, we decided to let the line form itself where the leaves wanted to naturally fall. As we saw at the end of our class, artwork like this is always temporary. After a truck drove across, it was hard to tell that the line had been there at all :)
