A man in a dark suit leans over a green felt table, holding a pool cue. His hand rests on his head, and the table has a few scattered balls—one red, one white, one striped. The background is a flat yellow-orange wall, and the whole scene feels a little off-kilter, like the colors are pushed together. The painting’s bold colors and simple shapes make it stand out. The artist used thick brushstrokes, especially on the man’s suit and the table, giving it a textured look. Next, check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
