About this work

This drawing shows a simple house with a slanted roof and two windows. The walls are made of rough, textured blocks in browns and reds, while the sky behind is a mix of blues and greens. The paint looks loose and uneven, almost like it was done quickly with watercolors or pastels. The artist’s name, Raimo Lasmo, is signed in the corner along with the words "Villa Kronberg." The house’s design is basic but the colors pop against each other, giving it a lively feel. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next to see how artists create texture with lines.
