Bright oranges and yellows capture the essence of fall in this collage and acrylic painting. The sun motif and warm tones give the composition a soft, glowing radiance. Green leaves add contrast. Artist Colette Wirz Nauke incorporated various collage elements to enhance texture and depth.
About the Artist
Artist Colette Wirz Nauke draws inspiration from her surroundings, memories, and imagination. "As a child, I was mesmerized by the beauty of the cherry blossoms in my grandfather’s backyard," shares Colette. Now, as an adult, she reconnects with that magical feeling and captures it in her work. Heavily influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, Colette particularly admires the techniques of Monet, Cézanne, and Bonnard. She spends her summers traveling across the US and abroad in search of her next muse. When she’s not painting, Colette enjoys visiting art museums, exploring parks, and teaching art.
