Landscape

About this work

This painting shows a rough, brushy scene of a building and a big tree. The building has a flat roof and white walls with green shutters. The tree is dark and lumpy, standing in front of a patchy blue sky. The grass and water below are painted in quick, messy strokes of green, brown, and gray. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, almost like the paint was scraped on. This style makes the scene feel alive but unfinished. If you like this look, try searching impasto.
