This painting shows a girl with curly brown hair and a simple, round face. She’s wearing a green dress with a light yellowish underside, and her hair has a few green leaves tucked in. The background is messy—lots of splashes of color like pink, orange, and yellow, with a dark outline behind her head. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, almost like the paint was slapped on. It gives the whole thing a rough, lively feel, like the artist was in a hurry—or just didn’t care about smooth lines. If you like this style, look up impasto.
