Fall Waltz
Description:
Autumn is not my favorite time of the year, although I always watch it with delight. These vagaries of nature and color tantrums that sometimes turn into psychedelic seizures that end in a winter coma. My painting is called "Fall Waltz".Available — this original is currently for sale.

About this piece
Fall Waltz is an original, one-of-a-kind work by Sergei Troshin, born 1960, based in Canada. It is made with acrylic,resin on fiberboard, mounted on a stained and glazed wood panel and measures 36 × 36 in (91.4 × 91.4 cm). It was completed in 2019. There is only one — nothing here is a print or a reproduction.
Materials and finish
The work is built on wooden board. A wooden board is rigid, which is what lets a thick, poured surface stay flat over time.
Resin — A poured resin coat cures to a hard, glass-like film. It deepens the colour underneath the way water darkens a stone, seals the surface, and gives the work a reflective face that behaves like glazing without the glass. Tate’s glossary entry on resin explains the term in more detail.
Acrylic — Acrylic dries quickly and stays flexible, which lets layers be laid over one another in a single session and scraped back while still workable. Tate’s glossary entry on acrylic paint explains the term in more detail.
Size and scale
The piece measures 36 × 36 in (91.4 × 91.4 cm). It is close to square, and this is a large piece — it will carry a sofa wall or a dining wall by itself, and wants roughly its own width of clear space around it.
Looking after it
The resin face is hard but it scratches like any gloss surface. Dust it with a dry, soft cloth — no solvents, no household cleaners, nothing abrasive.
Keep it out of long hours of direct sun. Prolonged UV is what ages a clear coat, and a wall that gets full afternoon light is the one place to avoid.
Room conditions matter more than anything else: stable temperature, stable humidity, no direct sun. The American Institute for Conservation publishes plain-language guidance on caring for artwork at home.
From the same year

Further reading
We write about how these surfaces are made and how to live with them in Notes on Art. Relevant to this piece:
- What a Resin Finish Really Does — Two Sans Souci originals, one poured resin finish, and why the same coat reads differently depending on scale, support, and where a piece hangs.
- How to hang a heavy painting — Weight decides the hardware, not size. What a rigid resin-faced panel needs that a small canvas does not, which fixing suits your wall, and what to ask us.
