Check out this curious oil painting from Debra Kierce! It features a robin’s nest in a tree with fall foliage. Somehow, the two opposites look great together in the painting. The blues and oranges are nice complementary colors. Maybe it reminds you of someone who will appreciate the symbolism of coming out of the ‘comfort zone’ in this piece.
Aren’t these furry ermine cute? Ermine are also known as short-tailed weasels. They live mostly in northern Eurasia and North America. Their coats change from brown to white in the winter. These ermine haven’t changed their coats yet, but they sure look ready to hunker down! This watercolor painting is painted with sterling silver by Rebecca Latham.
Sometimes the beauty of the season isn’t from the leaves on the trees. It's the graceful transition of the forest foliage as it gets ready for winter. The pale tones in Jackie Zagon’s Autumn Prelude provide a serene atmosphere for the bedroom or home office. The textures in the mixed media offer good rest for the eyes from computer work, too!
