The title for this painting came from the Robert Frost poem called “October.” I was especially inspired by this phrase:
O hushed October morning mild,
Thy leaves have ripened to the fall;
Tomorrow’s wind, if it be wild,
Should waste them all.
I was attempting to convey the heartfelt emotion of the poem and portray the rollicking energy and color of late October.
I created this abstract painting using archival-grade oil paint, gold leaf, and natural non-toxic solvent on luxuriously thick, inch and a half deep gallery wrapped canvas. The edges are painted, so the piece is ready to hang unframed.
This painting has been sold. Contact the artist directly to commission a similar oil painting or to inquire about prints.
