About this work

This painting shows a single green shape on a white background. It looks like a blob with a thick stem, kind of like a leaf or a plant. The paint is thick in spots, with some darker patches inside the green. The artist used a lot of paint in places, making it look almost 3D. This is called *impasto*—when paint is laid on thick so you can almost feel it. Try looking up *impasto* to see more examples of this bold technique.
