GOLDEN SILENCE

Twigs and Branches

Autumn is winding down.  Yet this year, some trees are still in full leaf and color.  Gold coin leaves still sparkle on the trees. Brushes of sunlight flicker over my autumn paintings springing to life with deep meanings of color, light, and dimension.   


*Claude Monet
French Impressionist Master of color and light, paints autumn like no other....light shimmers, painted meditations, feelings of serenity.

Monet painted out of doors to observe the ever changing patterns of hues and tones, textures and atmosphere.  Just viewing the scenes brings peace and contentment, joy and wonder.  Monet painted surfaces and depths simultaneously.  The paint is incidental.

Air is pure and clear, leaves sing out, harmonic patterns stitched together.


Just so fun to look at autumn embers.

"Sunlight Flickered" I wrote many years ago as I watched the shadows and light dance over  my paintings stacked in the living room, waiting for their new places around the home.  Boxes and crates, yet unpacked waiting impatiently to be discovered.  A moment of quiet happened as sunlight expanded and widened my view.



This Autumn, I lost my speaking voice to temporary allergy, and found new meaning in the words "Silence is Golden."

This Autumn, I watch the light again and again....traveling minute by minute, frame by frame, dancing silently across the paintings.  Gazing out the window at sunset I see pinks, purples, russet and flaming orange in skies and leaves.  A dust of finest snow dots the grass like powdered sugar sprinkles.
