"I
wanted to depict Autumn in a positive way. For one, it is has the colours of
the falling leaves, which I could now paint. I wanted the Autumn figure to be
letting go of all the ‘baggage’ that had been built up over time. A large expel
of breath, ready to start again afresh"
A time for change, to let things go,
an autumnal drift,
a return to the flow,
releasing details, time considered,
like blowing leaves, old and withered
