About this work

This painting shows a bare tree standing in a snowy field. The branches twist against a pale sky, and the snow looks soft and uneven. In the distance, a faint line of trees or buildings sits low on the horizon, barely defined. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, almost like scribbles—some thick, some thin—making the scene feel sketchy and alive. It’s not polished; it’s more about mood than detail. If you like this style, look up impasto next.

Elias Muukka

Elias Muukka had a habit of packing up his sketchbook, a hammer, and a pocketful of nails and heading straight for the nearest fortress or factory.
