Fiery paintings have a warm and energy to them like the bonfires and fireworks that inspired them. They reflect the colours of autumn with oranges, yellows and reds dominating.
In the Northern hemisphere Autumn is also a time for bonfires and fireworks on Guy Fawkes day and Halloween. As the light fades the fires glow warming and comforting in the dark. The fire is powerful too having a fearful potential for destruction.
The contrasts of light and dark, of the soft smoke and the fierce fire, capture our attention speaking to us in a primeval way. Whether it is friend or foe, the fire captures our attention: you could watch a fire dance for hours.
