Arts editor’s guide to autumn
I’ve always felt that autumn is far more indicative of a new year than Jan. 1.
For the first time since 2003, I’m not returning to school in September. From preschool to the final semester of my undergraduate degree, the yellowing of the leaves marked the beginning of my studies. Though I’m no longer hitting the books, it remains a time of change and regrowth.
I like to colour each season with art, music and recipes to measure time passing. Here are a few things colouring my autumn.
