"Herbst" - Flow of Life series

The “Circle of Life” artwork created in October 2019 gave the start to the “Flow of life” series painted with Acrylic Pouring Technique, also known as Fluid Art Technique. The idea evolved throughout the years. Although the artworks are created in an abstract style, there is immense symbolism and reflection embedded. 
 
The symbolism starts with the technique that allows to get the effect of flow and can be associated with the flow of life: colorful, bubbly, and calm, with its ups and downs…. The Acrylic Pouring Technique is also known for being not a fully controllable process. There is a pretty good amount of unpredictability regarding how the end result eventually will look. Just like in real life when we plan or long for something, however, life flows with its own defined pass. 
 
Autumn is part of our life flow…. Thrilled and inspired by natural colors, “Herbst” is an abstract interpretation of autumn. Ocher, yellow, orange-red, and purple gradually turning into brown…
 
With the arrival of autumn, nature offers us a grand show filled with a myriad of shades, from the ground covered by a carpet of colorful fallen leaves to the tops of the trees that are still retaining their crowns.
 
The trunks of the trees are full of life and stories while the branches intertwine to form a light filigree. Vibrant colors alternate seamlessly between cool and warm gradients and create a beautiful and natural palette.
 
Superficially, it is extremely colorful; it can be warm and embracing but once we scratch the surface we feel a melancholic mood and see the naked nature. We start sensing the cold wind, announcing the onset of natural hibernation which is part of our life as well …
 
Autumn in the woods is pure magic. Calm yourself and be attentive to hear all of the sounds: the rustling of the leaves underfoot and the trees swishing and creaking in the wind. Enjoy the moment and take it home as a sweet memory that will delight your eye and soul.
