Autumn Bliss

 

“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.”

— Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

In this vibrant painting of a forest scene, I wanted to create polarity with warm and cool colors. The foliage of the surrounding trees is a warm, fiery palette of reds, oranges, and yellows, creating a striking contrast to the larger trees with trunks in cool shades of  blue and gray. Bold, expressive brushstrokes from a palette knife give this piece a dynamic and textured appearance, capturing the vivid colors and energy of an autumn landscape and memories of a beautiful fall day.
