October Gold, Forest Pond | 60" x 40"
About the Artwork
October Gold, Forest Pond is a 60" x 40" oil painting by Rod Charlesworth created on canvas. Known for his vibrant interpretations of the Canadian landscape, Charlesworth captures the splendour of autumn light filtering through a stand of evergreens at the edge of a reflective pond.
The composition balances the towering vertical presence of a tree in the foreground with luminous foliage rendered in gold, orange, and soft green. Broad, gestural strokes and layered patches of colour convey both texture and movement, while dark waters glimmer with streaks of blue, anchoring the scene in depth. Charlesworth’s signature style—loose brushwork intermingled with knife marks—infuses the landscape with vitality, celebrating the seasonal richness of the forest. This work invites viewers to pause, observe, and share in the fleeting beauty of October’s golden light.

Accessibility Description
This vertically oriented oil painting presents a forest pond in autumn. A tall evergreen tree dominates the left foreground, its trunk dark brown with touches of orange and highlighted branches spreading outward. Dense foliage in the lower half is painted in strokes of green, yellow, orange, and red, suggesting shrubs and undergrowth transitioning with the season. Behind the tree, a dark pond stretches horizontally across the canvas. Its surface is broken with streaks of deep black, green, and bright blue, indicating reflections and ripples of water. On the far bank, light floods the slope, illuminating trees and foliage in shades of golden yellow with hints of purple and orange. Additional evergreens rise through the background, their dark forms contrasting with the bright hillside. The sky is only lightly visible in patches of pale blue above the treetops. The overall composition layers the vertical rhythm of tree trunks with the horizontal bands of water and hillside, filled with vibrant autumnal colour and strong contrasts of light and shadow.We believe in transparency.
