Autumn Evolves is a large, colourful, dynamic, semi-abstract autumn landscape oil painting in a frame. It measures 37.5 × 37.5 × 2.25 inches, including the frame. This painting was inspired by walking through the Ashdown Forest on a blustery day (Winnie the Pooh’s favourite kind of day). The leaves were whirling about, and the low October sun was lighting up various trees, leaves and viewpoints like a magical light show courtesy of nature herself. It felt like walking through a stage set. I could not, therefore, just paint some autumn trees — I had to find a way to add the energy that was inherent, as well as some of the forms and shapes of the trees. If you look closely, you will see a deer watching from the path (deer are always watching from somewhere…). Painted on deep-edge canvas with light purple edges and framed in a white float frame.
