Title: Acrylic painting Autumn in the mountains Mykhailo Patskan Description: №AAA4908 The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "Autumn in the Mountains" captures a breathtaking moment in nature where the vivid colors of fall meet the serene power of the alpine landscape. The composition immerses the viewer in a mountain valley framed by trees ablaze with warm tones, while a distant range of peaks rises under a sky brushed with lavender, soft blue, and gentle clouds. This is not a static scene—it pulses with movement, texture, and the emotional resonance of a changing season. At first glance, the eye is drawn to the fiery hues of the foliage that dominate the left and right edges of The painting. Here, the artist has employed expressive impasto strokes—thick, deliberate applications of orange, crimson, ochre, and sienna—layered to mimic the density and energy of autumn leaves. These strokes burst forward from the dark greens and purples beneath, creating an intense contrast that heightens the sensation of a forest in full transformation. It is as though the trees themselves are glowing from within, lit not only by the season but also by the artist’s vision of vitality and change. The center of The painting reveals a path or stream, suggested through shifting patches of white and reflective teal, which winds its way through the forested valley. This central corridor acts as a visual guide, drawing the viewer deeper into the scene and toward the majestic mountain range beyond. The water reflects not only the colors of the trees but also fragments of the sky, giving the illusion of depth and shimmering movement. This reflective element introduces a moment of calm within the surrounding energy, suggesting a peaceful presence amidst the riot of fall. In the background, the mountains rise with gentle slopes rendered in cool mauves, plums, and muted blues. Their rounded peaks contrast with the jagged intensity of the forested foreground, offering a sense of grounded permanence. These mountains serve as silent guardians of the valley, ancient and unmoved by the temporary flare of seasonal color below. The palette here is cooler, suggesting both physical and emotional distance, but also clarity—perhaps the stillness of winter waiting just beyond autumn’s edge.
