This oil painting cardboard, titled "The first snow fell", the painting captures the magical moment when the first snowfall blankets the earth, merging the fiery remnants of autumn with the icy touch of winter. The artist uses thick, impasto strokes, giving the scene a sense of movement and texture, as if nature itself is in transition. The foreground is dominated by a fresh layer of snow, painted with a mix of cool whites, soft lavender, and pale blue. The brushstrokes create an uneven, textured surface, suggesting that the snow has only just fallen, partially revealing the land underneath. Hints of warm pink and peach tones peek through, perhaps reflecting the last light of the setting sun or the golden hues of autumn leaves caught beneath the snow. In the middle ground, a vibrant contrast emerges with the presence of autumn’s lingering warmth. Trees, painted in fiery shades of red, orange, and golden yellow, stand defiantly against the encroaching cold. Their leaves seem to glow, creating an almost surreal effect as they contrast sharply with the cool tones of the snow-covered landscape. The thick layers of paint in this section emphasize the rough texture of the foliage, making the trees appear alive with energy, swaying in an unseen wind. The sky above is a swirling mix of gray, blue, and muted lavender, with broad, sweeping brushstrokes that add to the atmosphere of an impending storm. The movement in the sky suggests a moment of change, as heavy clouds loom over the landscape, hinting at more snow to come. Patches of lighter colors give the impression of fleeting sunlight, struggling to break through the overcast sky, illuminating the landscape with a soft, diffused glow. In the background, subtle hints of a distant village or small rural structures emerge through the atmospheric haze. Their presence is faint, almost blending into the scene, adding a sense of depth and human connection without drawing attention away from the natural elements. These structures are painted in cool, earthy tones, reinforcing the feeling of a quiet, wintery countryside setting.
