About this work

This painting shows a dry, hilly landscape with a winding path cutting through it. A small white building with a red roof sits on a rise, surrounded by scrubby trees and rocky ground. The colors are mostly earthy browns and greens, with a pale blue sky in the background. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a rough, textured look. It feels like the artist worked quickly, capturing the light and shadows in a simple way. If you like this style, look up impasto.
