This painting shows a small coastal village nestled between rocky hills. The buildings are clustered tightly, with white and earthy tones standing out against the brown cliffs. The sea stretches out in the background, calm and light blue, while the sky above is soft and cloudy. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured, almost rough look—like the landscape itself. This technique is called *impasto*, where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost feel the ridges. Look up impasto to see how artists use thick paint to create depth.
