This painting shows a woman sitting with her hands folded in her lap. She’s wearing a bright red dress with a dark collar and a white head covering. The background is plain and blurry, keeping the focus on her. The brushstrokes are loose, almost sketchy, giving the painting a soft, unfinished look. Her face is calm, with just a hint of color on her cheeks. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint can change a painting’s texture.
