About this work

This painting shows a group of people skiing up a snowy slope. The trees on either side are tall and bare, with bright yellow and brown trunks. The sky is pale blue, and the snow looks rough and uneven. Everyone is dressed in dark, heavy coats and hats, moving in a line. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, making the colors pop in a way that feels almost alive. The light hits the skiers’ faces and the snow, but the shadows stay dark and deep. If you like this style, look up impasto.
