This painting shows a young girl with light hair tied back. She’s wearing a greenish dress with red and orange sleeves. The background is dark, so her face stands out. Her hair looks soft, and the colors on her dress blend a bit. The artist used smooth brushstrokes to make her skin look natural. Check out Impasto—it’s a technique where paint is laid thickly to add texture.
