About this work

This painting shows a green, watery scene with twisted branches floating on the surface. Light colors peek through the top, like pale blue and white streaks, as if seen through trees. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, making the water and branches look rough and uneven. The painting feels dreamy, like looking at a pond through fog. The colors are soft but the texture is bold, almost like the artist scraped paint instead of brushing it. Next, check out impasto to see how this thick paint technique works.
