About this work

This painting shows a rough sea with three small boats. The water is choppy, and the sky is pale with a few clouds. The brushstrokes are thick, making the colors look textured and uneven. The boats are simple shapes—no fancy details, just basic forms. The artist’s signature is in the corner, but it’s hard to read. This style of thick paint is called *impasto*—look that up next.
