This painting shows a soft, rolling landscape with a winding river cutting through it. The colors are mostly muted—greens, browns, and yellows—but there’s a patch of bright orange in the lower left. Trees and bushes dot the hills, and the sky is a pale blue with light brushstrokes. The brushwork is loose and quick, almost like the artist hurried to capture the scene. The paint looks thick in spots, giving it a textured feel. If you like this style, check out impasto next.
