This painting shows a simple still life: a brown vase with bright yellow and orange tulips, a few white flowers mixed in, and green leaves. Next to it sits a green jug and a small white dish holding a red fruit. The background is dark, making the colors pop. The brushstrokes are loose and rough, giving the flowers a lively, almost sketchy feel. The artist didn’t focus on perfect details—just the shapes and colors. Check out the impasto technique to see how thick paint can create texture.
