The image is intended to represent a nostalgic mood, similar to the song "wake me up, when September ends", which was very popular at the time this picture was created. It was painted on a special fabric: it’s canvas, but woven from very strong paper threads. This gives the canvas lightness and transparency, which also supports and enhances the depicted subject. Despite the transparency, this painting surface required significantly more paint than normal canvases, but in effect the painting maintains its lightness, without being “plastered”. The painting was created in several layers, with the gold-colored layer (which contains the pattern of the golden leaves) being the bottom. Over it came brown layer but only in some places (Van Dyck brown). Then I covered the desired patterns with liquid wax in the two layers and finished the top layers all over in a couple of painting processes. The last step was the removal of the wax – it is always an exciting moment to see whether the "recessed" areas actually result in the desired patterns.

I live in Vienna, Austria and in Venice, Italy "I’m primarily an abstract painter, although with visible connection especially to landscape painting. My pictures are painted dynamically, on a grand scale. They emanate a wealth of color and latent emotion. The richness of color does not come from a wide range of colors, but how they are put together. I try to achieve a carefully thought-out and precisely linked construction of planes. Recently I started a series of figurative paintings, which deal mostly with people and their perception of arts. I’m right now fascinated with the world outside of a museum or an art fair but seen from inside a museum – it is a look out on the street: visitors, who just left or casual bystanders. Four such paintings are here attached." Ursula studied History of Art at Jagiellonian University in Cracow (diploma in Modern and Contemporary Art), which was followed by different studies (a. o. in Harvard, USA). She has been living in Vienna since long time, travelling extensively - especially to the Far East and to North America. She is primarily an abstract painter, although with visible connection especially to landscape painting. Recently she started a series of figurative paintings, which deal mostly with people and their perception of arts. One of the art critics wrote about her painting: "The pictures (...) are painted dynamically, on a grand scale. They emanate a wealth of colour and latent emotion. We enter a world of coloured stains, which suggest that space has given birth to something new, something worth recording. The artist constructs a pictorial space based on colour. The richness of colour does not come from a wide range of colours, but from her knowing how to put them together. She achieves a carefully thought-out and precisely linked construction of planes. Each ‘stain’ has its own logic, emotional and constructional. The paintings do not have formal geometry, but they certainly don’t lack structure, which comes from the twists and turns of the brush strokes. Each touch of the brush, contriving both breadth and synthesis, brings to the whole a character of unusual weight. It has a life of its own, and giving off an individual radiance it goes towards bringing about that overall harmony which can be likened to that of a musical symphony. A diversity of images arises from a palette of warm and cold colours whose rhythm, discreetly but unwaveringly, leads to a play of values.
