Autumn (2003) Original Oil Painting by Simon Kozhin

A serene autumn landscape unfolds in this evocative painting. The artist captures a fleeting moment of seasonal transition en plein air in a single session in Moscow in 2003
. Soft brushstrokes build a sense of atmospheric depth. Warm ochre and golden hues dominate the central foliage. These tones contrast delicately with a pale, expansive sky. The composition balances a wild foreground with a distant, hazy horizon. A rhythmic application of paint creates a tactile surface. Subtle shifts in light suggest a cool afternoon breeze. The scene evokes a feeling of quiet contemplation. Nature is presented in its most poetic state. Every stroke contributes to a harmonious blend of earthy greens and burnt yellows. The horizon line anchors the gaze. This artwork celebrates the fragile beauty of the changing seasons. It focuses on the interplay between light and organic form. The pale blue sky reflects a soft, filtered light across the vegetation. A few slender branches break the horizon, adding a linear elegance to the organic mass of the trees.
