About this work

This painting shows a small forest scene with four tall trees framing the view. Their trunks are dark and rough, while the leaves mix greens and browns. Behind them, a rocky hillside rises, painted in muted reds and grays. The grass at the bottom is patchy, with some yellow-green spots. The brushstrokes are thick in places, especially on the trees, giving them a textured look. The light feels soft, as if filtering through real leaves. Try looking up impasto to see how this thick paint technique works.
