A man sits holding a wooden palette with brushes and paint. His jacket is brown with a blue collar, and he holds a cigarette in one hand. The brushes are thick and the paint looks wet. The background is mostly green and gray, with quick, loose strokes. This painting was made in 1936, and the artist signed it in the top corners. The brushwork is rough, almost like the paint was applied fast. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
