About this work

This painting shows a simple tabletop scene. There’s a squash with green and yellow stripes, a dark bottle, a few onions, and what looks like a woven basket with bread inside. The colors are earthy—browns, greens, and a little red—with brushstrokes that feel rough and textured. The basket’s woven pattern stands out against the smooth shapes of the squash and bottle. The light hits the squash and onions from the side, making some parts brighter than others. If you like this style, look up *impasto* next.
