About this work

This painting shows a cluster of simple houses with red-tiled roofs, stacked on a hillside. The walls are pale pink and beige, and a few trees with bare branches dot the scene. In the background, a larger building with a red roof sits behind a line of trees, under a cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the buildings a textured look. The colors feel warm but muted, like a quiet village in late afternoon. If you like this style, check out *impasto* next.
