This painting shows a basket of apples. The apples are bright red and green, some shiny, some dull. The basket sits on a dark surface, and the background is a rough, blue-gray color. Brushstrokes are thick and visible, making the paint look almost textured. The apples aren’t perfectly smooth—they have rough spots and uneven colors, like real fruit. The painting feels quick and loose, not polished. If you like this style, look up impasto.
