About this work

This painting shows a quiet hillside scene with a winding dirt road cutting through it. Tall, leafless trees line the background, their branches bare and twisted. In the foreground, a few small buildings huddle near a cluster of sheep grazing on the dry, patchy grass. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, giving the landscape a rough, textured feel. The colors are mostly earthy—browns, grays, and muted greens—with a hint of blue in the sky. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
