Prairie Lake

A pastoral autumn landscape featuring a dominant flame-colored tree in brilliant reds, oranges, and golds positioned left of center, surrounded by softer green and yellow foliage along the edge of a misty lake or river. A winding dirt path curves through golden meadow grasses toward the water, with small white and yellow wildflowers dotting the foreground. The palette is rich in amber, ochre, burnt sienna, and olive green under a soft pearl-gray sky. Painted in a traditional oil style with loose, impressionistic brushwork; moderately complex with layered foliage detail and atmospheric depth in the hazy background.
