About this work

This painting shows an older person sitting with a dark hat and glasses, holding a small object in their hands. They’re dressed in a dark coat with a green scarf, and their face looks focused. Behind them, a bright blue wall holds a mirror with a yellow flower and a few other items. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the painting a textured look. It feels like the artist wanted to show real life, not polished perfection. If you like this style, look up impasto.
