Autumn

This work by Medina Kasimova, part of her Seasons cycle, conveys the autumn atmosphere, symbolizing not only the fading of nature but also the anticipation of renewal. The artist was inspired by maple leaves, which in autumn undergo a multitude of complex shades, becoming the embodiment of all the colors of this season. The painting's creation process unfolds in two layers: first, a deep background is laid down, reflecting the main mood and dominant color of the season, and then brushstrokes are applied, adding all the complexity, beauty, and diversity of autumn emotions. These strokes convey the changeability and richness of feelings that arise during this period, as nature completes one cycle and foreshadows the next stage of life.
