About this work

You see a small harbor scene on cardboard. The painting shows a few boats tied to wooden posts in calm water. A low wooden building stands near the shore. It’s painted with thick oil paint, called impasto. The brushstrokes are bold and uneven, giving the scene a rough, real feel. If you like this bold style, look up impasto next.
