Title: Acrylic painting In the autumn forest Mykhailo Patskan Description: №AAA4939 The acrylic painting on cardboard titled "In the Autumn Forest" evokes a sense of warmth, nostalgia, and deep connection to nature. It captures a fleeting moment at the heart of fall, where the forest is alive with fiery color and golden light. Through expressive brushwork and a rich, earthy palette, the artist offers not only a scenic view, but an emotional landscape—inviting the viewer to walk among the trees and feel the breath of the changing season. At the center of the composition is a serene stream, its waters gently winding through the forest and reflecting the vibrant tones of its surroundings. The artist uses delicate white and lilac highlights to mimic the shimmer of light on water, suggesting the presence of both sky and leaves mirrored on the surface. These ripples of reflection add a dynamic quality to the still scene, where the movement of the water contrasts subtly with the sturdy presence of the trees. It is a masterful play between stillness and motion, quiet and sound, that invites contemplation. Surrounding the stream, trees in brilliant shades of orange, red, ochre, and dark green rise up like burning torches. The dense forest glows with warmth, and the brushstrokes—thick, textural, and full of energy—emphasize the richness of foliage at the peak of its autumn glory. The layered application of paint adds dimensionality to the canopy, creating a depth that allows the viewer to feel almost enveloped by the trees. You can almost hear the crunch of fallen leaves underfoot, the gentle rustle of the wind stirring the branches, and the call of distant birds migrating south. To the left and right of the composition, deeper tones of shadowy greens and browns suggest an older, quieter part of the forest. These darker trees frame The painting, guiding the viewer’s gaze inward toward the glowing center. This visual structure acts like a natural corridor, drawing us toward the stream and beyond it—toward the misty hills that rise in the background. Painted in soft purples, pinks, and lavender tones, the hills suggest distance and calm. Their hazy outlines blend into the sky, dissolving into a cloud-streaked atmosphere that hints at the waning light of late afternoon or early evening.
