About this work

This painting shows a row of colorful buildings with slanted roofs, painted in thick, bright strokes. The colors are bold—yellows, reds, and greens—with a river or stream in the foreground. Trees and bushes add a touch of nature to the scene, and the sky above is a mix of dark and light blues. The brushstrokes are heavy, almost like the paint was scraped on, giving it a rough texture. This style makes the colors pop even more. If you like this look, check out impasto.
