This originates from the Welsh nursery rhyme/nonsense song which I learned from my grandfather when I was very small. These days I annoy my husband with it, every time we go past Brecon, or see a road sign with that on it. You can see the look of despair cross his face when he realises what's about to happen.... Just look on YouTube for 'Heron from Brecon' and you'll get the idea...
I chose to use autumn colours as the song features lots of apples so I combined this idea with 'heron grey' . As the lyrics and tune are quite manic in many ways I tried to get lots of motion and swirling around in the design to echo this.
