About this work

A woman lies on a couch, her body relaxed but her head turned slightly to the side. She’s bare-chested, wearing only a short skirt, with one leg bent and the other stretched out. The couch is plain, with a green blanket draped over it, and the background is a rough, textured wall in muted reds and whites. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the skin and fabric a rough, almost unfinished look. The colors are simple—mostly earthy tones with a few stark contrasts. This style reminds you of impasto.
