“Red Ontario” is an original oil on canvas by Paul Chizik, presented in a bold black frame that enhances the painting’s rich autumn palette.

Chizik, a classically trained Canadian painter rooted in the European atelier tradition, is celebrated for his extraordinary command of light, colour, and atmosphere. His plein-air discipline and deep sensitivity to natural rhythm distinguish him as one of Western Canada’s leading contemporary realists.

In this intimate landscape, Chizik captures the brilliance of an Ontario autumn. Vibrant reds blaze across the foliage, contrasted by cooler greens and the soft gold of early evening light. Loose, expressive brushstrokes bring movement and immediacy, drawing the viewer into a moment of shifting season and glowing colour.

A warm, emotive landscape study that showcases Chizik’s masterful ability to elevate everyday nature into lyrical, painterly poetry.
