This painting shows a rough, brushy scene of two trees standing in a field. The paint is thick and uneven, with dark blues and greens clumped together. The sky is pale and patchy, and the ground looks like a mix of green and brown strokes. The trees dominate the middle, their trunks and branches scraped with paint. The artist’s signature is barely visible in the corner. This style looks like the paint was slathered on, not smoothed out. If you like this rough, textured look, check out impasto.
