Paysage d'Auvergne sur Oise

About this work

This painting shows a quiet river winding through a wooded landscape at sunset. The sky glows warm yellow, while the trees on either bank stand dark and still. A small boat floats near the center, and a few people walk along the riverbank, their figures tiny against the greenery. The brushstrokes are loose, almost sketchy in places, giving the scene a soft, dreamy feel. The light on the water looks real, like you could step into it. If you like this style, look up *impasto*.
