Fall painting

🍂 Hello Painting Family! 🍂

Fall is sneaking in, and our calendar is filling with all the cozy, colorful paintings we love this season!

☀️ Last Taste of Summer

Catch our bright Lemon painting this week—one of your last chances to paint it this year before we swap lemonade for pumpkin spice.

🎃 Pumpkins + Family Fun

Pumpkins are tumbling onto the schedule (yay!), and we’ve got kids and family classes coming up in Tumwater, Yelm, and Puyallup. These are the perfect way to:
✨ Celebrate your kiddo’s first days back to school
✨ Reward their hard work with a fun night out
✨ Paint adorable critters together and make lasting memories

🍄 Mushroom Magic

Fall in Washington means mushrooms! Alongside Halloween and spooky season, we’re bringing you brand-new mushroom paintings (plus old favorites) at Artvana partner venues.

🍁 Let’s Paint Fall Together

Fall is the season of cozy textures, rich colors, and creative inspiration. Join us at a class near you and soak it all in—brush in hand, friends by your side. We can’t wait to see you!

fall painting colors you will love to create with
Hello, painter! Do you want to create a beautiful Fall painting this year?  Today I’m here to share my favorite fall-inspired acrylic paint colors. When autumn rolls around and the leaves start changing, it’s kind of like living in a painting. You might be tempted to re-create some of the beautiful fall scenes around you. These colors are a great place to start! 
When I think of fall, I think of rich, dark, velvety colors and textures contrasted with the crisp vibrant colors of the changing season. This combination of colors and textures is so fun to play with! It can almost feel like someone has slipped an autumn filter over our lives.
Here are some of the colors that call to me while I create this season. I hope they will inspire you as well! I have selected a variety of my favorite brands for you to explore and a short description of why I love each paint color. Different paints have different textures so you may find yourself dabbling in texture without even trying. Happy Fall painting! 
RAW UMBER by Winsor & Newton
I LOVE this color. It is the best for painting deep, dark shadows. It has a thick consistency and is opaque, which means you can’t really see through it. It is nice and rich right out of the tube!

GREEN GOLD by Golden
Ahhhh gold paints – some of my all–time favorites! All around, this green–gold color will knock your socks off. It‘s a little hard to describe, but think of a dark green with a golden–yellow undertone. It’s brilliant! I love using this color to add luster and rich highlights to foliage and other areas of a fall painting that may need some light brought in or enhanced. I have included a fluid, more transparent version and a thicker, more opaque version. Which will you choose?

Dioxazine Purple by SOHO
Purple is often overlooked as a fall color but I think it serves as a nice transition into the holiday season. It’s great for shadows, water, and dead or dying foliage if this is the direction your artwork is taking. SOHO can be an overlooked brand as well but they are on my list for some of the richest, most vibrant colors. This purple will not disappoint!

AZO Red Deep by SOHO
Appearing again from SOHO is the AZO deep red! Red can be a tricky color to work with because it normally has so much transparency to it. I love this deep red because it mixes well with other colors to create oranges, and it can be darkened to create maroons and burgundies. Mix it with some purple and you will have a whole new set of colors to create your fall painting with!

I hope you enjoy my favorite fall painting colors! Let us know what you create with them on our Facebook page.
