Robert bateman - Farm Lane and Blue Jays - Cyanocitta cristata

"One of the most wonderful times and places on the planet Earth is autumn in the
deciduous forest regions of North America. Deciduous, of course, means leaves
that seasonally drop off. The coming of winter brings a change of light and a nip
to the air which turns the forest into a multitude of rich and brilliant colours.
These regions of North America were those first settled by pioneers because
the land was easily cleared and had rich soil. Coniferous forests tend to
produce acid soil which quickly becomes infertile when cultivated.

The first settlers were farmers who built their homes and barns on suitable
topography. This often entailed a long lane leading from the main road to
the buildings. In most cases, they encouraged trees to grow along the lanes
as shelter from the sun in summer and the blowing snow in winter. I
also believe that they encouraged a row of trees on each side of the lane
because they enjoyed their beauty.

In this painting, I tried to capture the feeling of autumn and the smell
and rustle of that golden carpet. To give a little cool contrast, I put in a
couple of flashes of blue. Blue jays are also very much a part of the sounds
of autumn for we always hear their ringing cry "jay . . . jay . . . jay"."
