Title: Acrylic painting Colors of the autumn forest Mykhailo Patskan Description: №AAA4934 The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "Colors of the Autumn Forest" is a vivid tribute to the sensory richness of fall. The composition immediately draws the viewer into a mesmerizing interplay of color, texture, and natural rhythm. With bold, impressionistic brushwork and a layered palette, the artist captures the fleeting moment when the forest becomes a fiery mosaic of orange, gold, and earthy browns, all set against a backdrop of calm blue mountains and a softly lit sky. Dominating the foreground is a lush canopy of trees ablaze in the warm tones of autumn. Their foliage, painted in thick strokes of cadmium orange, deep crimson, and ochre, bursts with energy and life. These leaves seem to flutter in the crisp seasonal air, their forms abstract enough to suggest motion while retaining enough shape to evoke the familiar comfort of a woodland path. The impasto technique used in the application of paint gives the trees a three-dimensional presence, as if the viewer could reach out and brush their fingers against the textured surface of the bark and leaves. Amid this fiery landscape, one tree stands taller than the rest, its trunk bold and dark against the storm of color. It commands the eye and serves as a vertical anchor in a composition otherwise filled with horizontal and diagonal rhythms. This solitary figure can be seen as a symbol of quiet strength, rooted and steady amidst change—a poetic nod to the transition that autumn represents in the cycle of nature. Beyond the blaze of trees, soft blue mountains roll gently into the distance, their peaks brushed in tranquil gradients of lavender and cerulean. These distant ridges contrast with the heat of the foreground, offering a cooling breath, a moment of visual rest. Their calmness is further enhanced by the layering of atmospheric perspective—the colors grow paler and cooler as they recede, drawing the viewer’s gaze deeper into the scene and evoking a sense of peaceful solitude. Above it all, the sky unfolds in soft hues of periwinkle, blush pink, and muted turquoise, gently streaked with creamy white clouds. The painter’s brushstrokes in the sky are looser and more fluid, suggesting a soft breeze that carries the scent of fallen leaves and the sound of rustling branches. The sky does not dominate but rather embraces the land below, completing the harmony of the composition.
