This painting shows a waterfront town with a mix of old buildings. The colors are bright but a little rough, like quick brushstrokes. A ship sits in the harbor, and hills roll in the background. The artist used loose, sketchy lines for the houses and water. It looks like they painted fast, catching the light and shadows in a hurry. Next, check out impasto to see how thick paint can change a painting’s feel.
