About this work

This painting shows two bowls of strawberries on a rough wooden table. One bowl is dark with a handle, the other is lighter and sits slightly higher. The strawberries look ripe and red, with a few green leaves mixed in. The background is blurred and messy, like the paint was slapped on quickly. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the whole thing a rough, textured look. It feels like the artist didn’t smooth things out—the paint almost looks like it was applied with a knife. Check out impasto to see how this thick paint technique works.
