October Woods III is a 1988 watercolor by Donald holden, a contemporary_abstract work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a mix of earthy browns, purples, and yellows in a loose, sketchy style. The colors look like they’re splashed on randomly, with some bright spots of yellow and blue peeking through. The edges are uneven, and the whole thing feels a little rough around the edges. The artist used watercolor, which lets the paper show through in places. The brushstrokes are quick and messy, like they were painted fast.
