Dimineața după ploaie

About this work

This painting shows a quiet countryside scene after rain. A herd of sheep grazes on a grassy hillside, their wool still damp. In the distance, a few trees stand along the horizon, and the sky glows with soft pink and orange light near the mountains. The artist used thick brushstrokes to show the texture of the sheep’s wool and the rough terrain. The light on the hills looks warm and peaceful, like the sun is just breaking through. Check out the technique: impasto to see how artists build up paint for texture.
