About this work

This painting shows two simple figures standing side by side. The person on the left wears a white top and a long purple skirt, while the person on the right has no shirt and a wrap around their waist. Between them grows a small plant with bright yellow flowers and green leaves. The background looks like a rough, textured wall with a border of blue sky filled with birds and stars. The figures’ faces are calm, and the colors are bold but not detailed. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint can create texture.
