Today's painting takes its inspiration from the rusting reds and oranges of grasses and bracken, and silhouettes of bare branches against winter skies. I painted the picture in layers, and the grasses are formed using quick, delicate strokes of watercolour.

Great painting! It looks very on point with the gradients

Wow, beautiful warm color combination choices. Reminds me of the dry fields in South Point of Big Island ,Hawaii

Great painting. Reminds me of something odd I saw while hiking at Elbsandsteingebirge. Resteemed :)

What beautiful colors nature brings the arrival of autumn to nature, silky tones ranging from yellow to reddish. a great palette of colors ideal for creative people.
congratulations dear friend / @ opheliafu for this beautiful work
I wish you a happy rest

I think i'm missing the colours of autumn as the snow is falling outside and everything is white.

that is the magic of nature, according to its presentation can trasnportar the mind, of the people, it is not necessary to live the spring, to perceive the cool breeze

Very beautiful illustration of red grass and the red giant in the sterk sky. Lovely as always @opheliafu :)

Thank you for that observation, realism isn't something i aim towards, but I'm glad you enjoyed the work.

At the same time it gives me the vibe of a cool and fresh just finished sunrise symbolising the unkown upcoming future.
