Fall is Over, Winter is Here

My Acrylic Fall Painting

Sometimes, a little color is all you need to brighten up your day.  That's why I really like fall paintings.  It's the only season that you can paint using pigment straight from the tube, and have your painting look just like it does outside.  I know that fall is over and winter has started, so I decided to take advantage of my last chance to write about fall; my favorite season.

If you're someone like me, the seasons can really reflect how you live and how you feel.  During the winter, I can't do a lot of what I like to do.  Read or paint in the sun.  Lay on the beach and relax.  Most of the time in the winter, I just live inside.  I never go outside, unless necessary.  That's why I love fall.  It's my last chance to be outside without wearing so many layers I can't breathe.  Without seeing nothing but white when you look out the window.  Winter can be beautiful, but it can get old after six months of the same views every day.  

One of my favorite things about fall is that everywhere you look, the world looks different.  Thousands of shades of oranges, yellows, reds and greens covering the mountain tops.  The trees remind me of people.  They're different colors and sizes, and from afar, they look basically  the same.  However, if you look at them individually, they are like no other.
