Durch den Herbstpass

The weathered covered bridge is the star here—those golden leaves against the crisp sky made me feel like I was actually walking through that autumn path. I’ve painted it twice already, just to soak in the warm hues again.

The covered bridge and golden leaves really pop once the paint dries, the warm hues guide your eye right through the scene. I hung it in my hallway and it instantly feels like a crisp October afternoon every time I walk past.

The quiet stillness of the autumn scene is exactly what I needed to unwind, and the weathered bridge detail feels so alive with the golden leaves framing it. Even the crisp sky tones came together beautifully with the warm hues, making it a truly peaceful painting session from start to finish.
