About this work

This painting shows a row of simple houses with slanted roofs, painted in rough, uneven brushstrokes. The colors are bright but muddy—reds, yellows, and blues mixed together in a way that feels quick and messy. The ground looks wet, with streaks of color blending into the dirt, and a narrow path leads between the buildings. The houses have small windows and doors, but the paint is thick in places, almost like it was slapped on fast. The trees in the background are just green blobs, not detailed at all. If you like this loose, expressive style, look up impasto.
