This painting shows a person wearing a dark hat, a white blouse with red trim, and a dark vest. Their hands rest on their lap, and the background is a dark, blurred shape. The brushstrokes are thick, especially on the clothing and face. The red buttons down the vest stand out against the dark fabric. The painting feels rough and textured, like the artist used bold strokes. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint like this creates texture.
