About "Reflection of Seasons"

About the artwork

The title "Reflection of Seasons" embodies the fluid transition of time, colour and feeling as depicted in this painting. The artwork is not just a collection of trees; it is a visual journey through the year, captured in a single still moment.

The trees stand side by side like stately sentinels of time, each in a different colour symbolising a season. On the left, the cool begins with deep shades of blue - an echo of winter, with bare stillness and fresh breath. Then follow the green hues of spring, where life slowly returns. In the middle of the work, yellow and gold shine like the full summer sun, warm and exuberant. To the right, the palette changes to fiery oranges and reds: the flamboyant farewell of autumn.

The reflection in the water under the trees completes the symbolism. The seasons repeat in reverse order, like a reminder that everything that blooms also stills, and then starts again. The water softens the transitions between the colours and adds a dreamy, poetic layering. It shows that each cycle resonates not only above, but also deep inside - within ourselves.

"Reflection of Seasons" speaks of change, transition, repetition and balance. It is a painting that is quiet and yet speaks - about time, about nature, and about how every moment can be captured in colour if only you look closely. Impressionism. Modern Abstract. Rainbow.
