About this work

This painting shows a bright blue vase on a table. Next to it is a small wooden bowl and a folded cloth with blue and brown patterns. The background is a rough, warm mix of orange and yellow brushstrokes. The cloth’s folds look almost like waves, with quick, sketchy lines. The blue vase stands out against the messy, textured background. If you like this loose, bold style, try looking up impasto.
