About this work

This painting shows a quiet evening scene with three bare trees standing in a field. The sky is a mix of soft blues, pinks, and yellows, with clouds that look like they’re moving fast. The grass below is patchy, some parts green and others brown, like it’s getting ready for winter. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, especially in the sky, making it look almost like you could feel the wind. The trees stand out because they’re dark against the lighter sky, but they don’t have any leaves—just branches. If you like this style, look up impasto.
