Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
This Fall the colours were spectacular, more reds and oranges and bright leaves than we have had in ten years. I had to paint it.
This has the Sumac on fire at the base of the trees with the leaves falling (the orange and yellow and red) and then the blue and purple is the mystery of the woods as you walk into the stillness.
It is dark but it is light with the leaves, and so magical.
This is an acrylic on 16 x 20 canvas regular, sides painted - I did not use a photograph, I just took my walk in the woods and came home and started the canvas, the way I love to paint - it was in my head.
My art is available here through Fine Art America and divisions of their company. Watermark does not appear on your purchased art. Thank you.

Claire, you are transporting a Special Feeling here, a Kind of melancolie - the Little sadnes when summer is gone. What a great atmosphere - LF - Dagmar

I love the fairytale like quality of the trees. I can see fire flies flittering through the forest, gently illuminating the bark and giving precedent to the on coming twilight.

There is no one who captures the allure and mystical quality of the woods like you. This autumn landscape, with it's beautiful light and lovely colors, is like an orchestra playing in perfect harmony. Sooooo - it is an instant favorite - voted.
