A landscape painting by Canadian artist Jeff Dillon, this original artwork captures a late autumn forest scene on the threshold of winter. Created in heavy body acrylic on canvas, the piece emphasizes layered brushwork, texture, and linework, reflecting an early approach to structure and seasonal atmosphere within the Canadian landscape.

As fall ends and the wait for winter snow begins, the forest settles into a quiet dormancy. Transient crimson leaves remain scattered across the forest floor, hinting at the summer richness that has passed. A paper birch trunk stands at the centre of the composition, rendered in layered graphite grey and milky titanium white, while a maple leaf appears in rich magenta and pyrrole red tones. Carbon black linework defines the structure, giving the scene clarity and visual rhythm within the subdued seasonal palette.

The accompanying Certificate of Authenticity is also hand-signed and numbered by the artist.
