THE TEARS OF THE FALL PALETTE KNIFE Oil Painting On Canvas By Leonid Afremov

THE TEARS OF THE FALL

Quiet beauty

Autumn is a special time of the year, gloomy and melancholic yet endlessly beautiful. The rhythm of life slows down, the air changes and the sun is so rich and mellow that you understand this is the last goodbye of the departing summer. Very soon the trees leaves will burst into flames and the sky will shed its blue skin and turn monotonously grey, with little sunlight making its way to the earth through the thick barrier of rainy clouds. Mirrored in numerous puddles, this desolate scenery will keep you trapped inside its broody charm for weeks. Walking down the freshly washed streets, inhaling the pleasant smell of sodden ground and wet plants, letting your thoughts and feelings floating free and quiet like a dry leaf on the water surface… There is something uncannily irresistible in this simple pastime. Especially if you look at it with the eyes of Leonid Afremov.

Rainy magic

This spectacular sample of large wall art shows us an unknown street, one of the many alike, a street that could belong to any city and bear any name. It is already late and the string of neon-lit buildings on the left is glowing hospitably inviting the rain-soaked by-passers to come in and have a hot drink. Transitioning from blue to orange and back, the brightly illuminated shop windows pull you into the mesmerizing play of colors supported by the display of reflections on the shiny asphalt. There is also something strange about the trees. If you look close, you’ll see that they are covered with rainbow-colored lights that seem to grow right on their naked branches. Painted in quick contrasting strokes, these phantasmagoric leaves are sparkling and trembling in the night sky filling your soul with expectation of a miracle. Something extraordinary and beautiful is about to happen… or maybe it is already happening, right now! Don’t waste precious time and plunge into the colorful harmony of this magical cityscape!

Home décor tips

If you are searching for a vibrant and imaginative painting to decorate your home, this is it! However, you should consider certain aspects before deciding where to put it:

·         The painting is rather large and bright, so it requires a lot of wall space with nothing coming into view.

·         The abundance of colors calls for a plain-colored wall. Any conspicuous wall pattern will clash with the palette of the painting.

·         Note that the canvas is painted in a contemporary manner meaning it should be combined with similar-styled visual art and wall décor.
