This painting shows a woman sitting with one arm resting on her head. She’s wearing a red headscarf and a light-colored dress. The background is a mix of reds, yellows, and blues, with brushstrokes that look thick and uneven. The red headscarf stands out against the warm, messy colors around her. The painting feels rough, like it was done quickly with bold strokes. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
