Koivumetsää, Vääksy is an unspecified by Magnus Enckell, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a thick forest with tall, skinny trees. The trunks are mostly white and gray, but some have green or brown patches. The background is dark green, almost black, with patches of lighter blue and yellow sunlight breaking through. The ground is a mix of brown and green, with some rocks and patches of grass. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the trees a textured look. The light filtering through the trees creates a moody, shadowy feel. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
