About this work

This painting shows a dark, rainy scene with a small village at the bottom. The sky is deep blue, almost black, with heavy rain falling in thick streaks. The village has simple houses with sloped roofs, some covered in white and others in muted greens and browns. A rocky shore runs along the water’s edge, blending into the misty horizon.

If you like this style, look up impasto next.
