About this work

This painting shows a red table with a few simple things on it. There’s a green seashell with dark spots, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a white object that looks like a folded cloth or napkin. The colors are bold—reds, greens, and yellows—and the brushstrokes are thick, almost like the paint was slapped on. The glasses and shell sit close together, almost touching. The cloth has a few faint marks, like it was used or crumpled. The whole scene feels a little messy but intentional, like someone quickly arranged these objects and painted them fast. If you like this loose, expressive style, look up impasto.
