Light a Fire in the Fireplace, Winter Is Coming
by © emma cha

Embers kiss the dusk,
Cold hills lean toward the promise—
Winter holds its breath.

A luminous meditation on warmth and solitude. A flame burns upon a snowy slope beneath a sky melting from gold to ash. The scene bridges abstraction and dreamscape, where fire becomes both shelter and soul—an inner hearth igniting against the vast, cold hush of winter.

Artistic Statement:
Merging post-abstract lyricism and watercolor impressionism, this piece transforms geometry into atmosphere. The chromatic dialogue of fire and frost evokes existential intimacy—a continuation of abstract expressionism reborn through natural symbolism and poetic tonality.

Influences:
Marc Chagall’s poetic vision inspires emotional narrative; Paul Klee informs the symbolic interplay of form and color; Turner’s atmospherics give light transcendence; Zao Wou-Ki bridges abstraction and landscape; Helen Frankenthaler’s washes shape the emotional fluidity of pigment and air.

Light a Fire in the Fireplace, Winter Is Coming

Flame hums through the dusk,
snow listens, sky bends to gold—
warmth dreams of the cold.

A watercolor reverie: a lone fire flickers on a snowy slope beneath an amber sky.
Color itself becomes breath—red and blue converse like heart and silence.
Between abstraction and landscape, emotion burns quietly into light.
