Landscape

About this work

This painting shows a sky full of thick, swirling clouds in blues, whites, and grays. Below, a body of water stretches out, with quick brushstrokes suggesting movement. On the left, a dark shape that looks like a tree or fence cuts across the scene. The brushwork is heavy, almost like the paint was scraped or dabbed on. It feels rough and fast, as if the artist worked quickly to capture the mood of the sky and water. This style is called *impasto*.
