This painting shows three tall palm trees in front of a calm blue sea. The trees are dark and twisty, with greenish fronds at the top. The sky fades into a lighter blue near the horizon, and there’s a small boat far off in the water. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, especially on the trees, giving them a textured look. The colors feel warm near the trees but cool over the water. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
