About this work

This painting shows a woman sitting on a chair with her legs crossed. She’s wearing a blue skirt and a white top, with one arm resting on her lap and the other behind her head. The background is a rough, reddish wall, and there’s a bright yellow flower on a table to the left. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the painting a rough, textured look. The colors are simple but bold—mostly blues, yellows, and whites. If you like this style, look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint.
