Title: Acrylic painting Autumn colours Mykhailo Patskan Description: №AAA4912 The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "Autumn Colours" is a bold, expressive celebration of the fiery beauty of fall. With masterful brushwork and a rich, layered palette, the artist evokes the transformative energy of the season as nature blazes into a final crescendo before winter’s hush. This work is not merely a visual representation of a forest or landscape, but a sensorial experience that immerses the viewer in a world of warmth, texture, and color. The composition centers around a dense forest scene, where trees clad in their autumnal finest line the edges of a still body of water. Reflections ripple across the surface like molten glass, mirroring the explosion of oranges, reds, yellows, and deep purples above. The trees appear alive with light—some glowing from within as if touched by sunset, others receding into shadows that pulse with hints of emerald and umber. These contrasts bring vibrancy and depth, creating the illusion that The painting is simultaneously on fire and at peace. The brushstrokes are thick, emotive, and layered. Dabs and streaks of color are applied with energy and freedom, suggesting a hand that paints not only what it sees but what it feels. The forest is not drawn in clear outlines; instead, it emerges through tone and texture—leaves are suggested through bursts of warm pigment, tree trunks hinted at with dark vertical strokes that frame glowing gaps of light. The overall effect is one of both abstraction and realism: it is undoubtedly a forest in autumn, yet it shimmers with dreamlike ambiguity. The lower half of The painting, depicting the water, is a quieter echo of the drama above. Still, it plays a crucial role, grounding the energy of the trees with smooth, horizontal lines that suggest reflection and calm. The water is painted with layered hues—deep violets, burnt siennas, and occasional flickers of yellow and pink that catch the light like embers floating on the surface. This duality between the tumultuous foliage and serene water brings balance to the composition, reinforcing the natural equilibrium of the changing seasons. Light is another central element in the work. It does not come from a single source but seems to radiate from within The painting itself. The most luminous patches—bold yellows, bright oranges, and sharp whites—draw the eye toward the center, pulling the viewer inward.
