Mystery and Light (5/8) | Fall Smalls 2024
6" x 6" oil painting with copper metal leaf and resin
Autumn. This is the time of year in which my soul finds rest and rejuvenation unlike any other. Her spirit, her imagination, her wonder, her ability to fill us with light even as her days get darker — And her color —what mystery and light.

Every year I put together a very purposeful collection of Fall paintings to share the moments of the season that leave me in bewilderment. This year the abstract pieces focus on three main colors — Marigold, Amber, and that warm olive green.
Marigold and Amber glimmer with imagination. These toasty colors share with us such peace and joy that only a warm beam of sunlight on a chilly day can bring.
And our dear friend, Olive green serves as a reminder of endurance, renewal, growth and balance. When I see this green I think of a chill breeze through the changing trees. Not quite brown yet, not fully orange and yellow, but a warm green that sways with the wind. A deep breath.
How beautiful a thing when the grasses, flowers and trees start to die, they use their last bit of life to produce some of the most comforting and life-giving colors?
