This close-up shows a messy mix of colors. On the left, a purple-gray shape looks like a person’s face or body, half-hidden. To the right, thick green and yellow brushstrokes suggest trees or a forest, but they’re rough and uneven. The paint is sloppy—some spots look like it was applied with a knife. That thick, textured style is called *impasto*, where paint sits heavily on the surface. Check out impasto for more examples of this bold, tactile technique.
