About this work

This painting shows a bright, messy town on a hillside. Buildings with red roofs and light walls tumble down toward a road. Trees and bushes mix in, painted in quick, uneven strokes of green, blue, and yellow. The sky is a pale wash, and the whole scene feels warm but a little rough around the edges. The artist didn’t smooth out the colors—brushstrokes peek through, making it look like the scene was painted fast. The mix of wild colors and loose shapes gives it energy. Next, check out impasto to see how thick paint can change a painting’s feel.
