"Portrait of Autumn" is about a master artist setting out to paint a landscape of turning leaves as fall arrives. The poem goes through the process that this artist takes setting up and the joy of painting and completing his work. The melody is upbeat, easy to learn, and moves the poem forward. This beautiful vocal arrangement is one of many pieces written from poems by Fairy Walker Lane. Fairy Walker Lane 1890-1985 and the great aunt of Andrea JenkinsAndrea had always loved her aunt Fairy's poems, from when she was a little girl and her mom showed her the original pieces of work on old manuscript paper typed by a typewriter.

Fairy was also an entrepreneur and owned a business selling hats in Tucumcari.Andrea lives in Maricopa, AZ, and is a teacher for middle school choir and drama.
