About this work

This painting shows a boy with short blond hair and a serious expression. He’s wearing a red sweater over a white collared shirt. The background is blurry, with dark and light patches that make his face stand out. The boy’s sweater is painted in thick, bold strokes—almost like the paint was scraped on. This gives it a rough, textured look. Next, check out the technique: impasto.
