About this work

This painting shows a small village nestled in a valley. The houses have steep, rusty roofs and white walls, clustered together. Behind them, dark green trees and a blue, misty mountain rise up. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, making the colors pop. The artist used bold strokes of green, blue, and brown to create depth. Look up impasto to see how thick paint like this is used.
