Autumn Paintings — A Symphony of Colors - Teresa Bernard Oil Paintings

Capturing the Essence of Autumn in My Paintings

As an artist, I love color—all colors—some colors more than others. Autumn is more than just my favorite season; it’s a canvas waiting to be painted. I love dipping my brushes into the warm palette of fall—fiery reds, deep oranges, golden yellows, burnt siennas, and deep burgundies—the hues that work in harmony to make up all the colors of autumn in my paintings.

A Symphony of Colors

The essence of autumn is present in all the colors of fall. Fiery reds ignite with intensity, energy, and a hint of drama, reminiscent of leaves burning with passion in shades of crimson, scarlet, and ruby. Deep oranges are rich and comforting, embodying the warmth and abundance of fall. Golden yellows are like sunshine infuse optimism and cheer, making even the chilliest days feel cozy. Burnt siennas, a mix of rust and warm brown, are earthy and solid, conjuring up feelings of tradition and history. Deep burgundies suggest the richness of mulled wine and the allure of hidden mysteries. Autumn truly is a symphony of colors that captures the essence of the season. I strive to capture this essence in all my fall-themed paintings, and I believe it is evident in the works presented below.
