"AUTUMN'S HIDDEN SANCTUARY" is a beautiful work of color and light, mood and atmosphere. This striking work pictures a view of an entrance to an autumn woods. The setting sun is shining from the left side of the scene. The sky background is a pastel cyan color that complements nicely the reds, oranges, golds, yellow, and siennas of the beautiful autumn tree foliage. Mood is at the front in this scene. The forefront beckons the viewer into the scene. There are fallen logs, rocks and leaves on the ground. If the viewer can imagine themselves into this scene, they would probably hear the leaves rustling in a breeze, the birds singing, and smell the fresh clean country air, and hear the squirrels chattering or tree frogs, and maybe see a white-tail deeror two. It has been said that Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. This work evokes feelings of welcoming, harmony, peace, love, joy, relaxation and refreshment, prosperity, abundance and well-being. This painting would make a most appreciated, unexpected and beautiful gift and would certainly make a great conversation piece to adorn any room in the home or office.
