About this work

This painting shows a dry, rocky hillside with a few small buildings scattered around. The houses have simple roofs, some red and some brown, and sit close to the ground. A winding road cuts through the hills, with a few trees and patches of grass dotting the landscape. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, giving the scene a rough, almost handmade feel. The colors are earthy—yellows, browns, and muted greens—making the whole scene look warm and sunlit. If you like this style, check out impasto next.
