About this work

This painting shows a close-up of water with swirling blues and greens. The brushstrokes look thick and textured, almost like the surface of moving water. In the bottom right corner, there’s a faded signature with the year "1909" partially visible. The focus on water and the rough brushwork make it feel alive, like you’re looking at a snapshot of nature rather than a polished scene. The signature hints this might be from a century ago, but the style feels fresh and immediate. If you like this, check out impasto—the technique used here to build up thick paint.
