This painting shows a rough, blocky landscape with flat colors. The sky is a pale pink with a few dark, uneven shapes that look like trees. Below, there are squarish buildings in muted yellow and white, and the ground is a mix of browns and greys. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, almost like scribbles. The title is *Outdoor study*, which hints this might be a quick sketch of a real place. The colors are simple but the shapes feel off—like the artist was more interested in how things look from far away than in detail. If you like this loose, sketchy style, look up cross-hatching next.
