Untitled is a 1959 oil by Elmer Bischoff, a Abstract Expressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting shows a person walking through a garden. The figure is barefoot, wearing light-colored pants and a loose top, with one arm raised as if adjusting their head covering. Behind them, bright red flowers stand out against green bushes, while the ground is a mix of shadowy greens and light patches. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a rough, textured look. The colors feel bold and uneven, like the artist worked quickly. Try looking up *impasto* to see how this technique works.
Elmer Nelson Bischoff (July 9, 1916 – March 2, 1991), was an American visual artist, from the San Francisco Bay Area.
