About this work

This painting shows a person riding a horse, herding two cows along a muddy path. The trees are thick and dark, with brushstrokes that look rough and uneven. The colors are mostly earthy—greens, browns, and a bit of red from the rider’s coat. The brushwork is thick, almost like the paint was scraped on in chunks. This makes the scene feel alive but also a little messy, like you’re seeing it through a quick glance. If you like this style, look up impasto.
