This painting shows a simple, grayish scene with a few dark shapes. One shape looks like a window or door, and another could be a person or object in the distance. The colors are mostly muted, with some light gray and darker purples. The painting feels unfinished, like it was quickly sketched with loose brushstrokes. The artist used a soft, watery medium that blends colors together. Next, check out gouache to see how this technique works.
