About this work

This painting shows a single tree in a forest. The trunk is thick and dark, splitting into branches that spread out under a canopy of green leaves. The background is a mix of lighter and darker greens, with patches of yellow and white dotting the ground. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, almost like the artist painted it fast. The colors feel natural but not perfectly smooth—they look handmade, with visible texture. If you like this style, look up *impasto*.
