About this work

This looks like a blurry, colorful photo of a cityscape. Bright blocks of pink, blue, and yellow mark buildings, while dark lines suggest bridges and trees. The colors are thick and uneven, like someone slapped paint on fast. The artist used a lot of bold, flat colors instead of smooth blends. It feels more like a sketch than a polished photo. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
