About this work

This painting shows a rough wooden windmill against a bright blue sky. The structure is weathered, with a small window near the top and a door at the base. The blades are simple, dark lines against the light background, and the ground below is a mix of green and brown brushstrokes. The paint is thick in places, giving the wood texture a gritty look. The sky is flat and pale, making the windmill stand out sharply. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
