About this work

This painting shows lines and shapes in pencil and oil on canvas. It's pretty simple, but look closely. The lines and shapes are actually pretty interesting because they show the artist's process. The artist, Park Seo-Bo, was experimenting with different techniques. He was trying to create a sense of depth and texture. You can see similar experiments with texture in the work of another artist, but to learn more about this specific style, look up the technique of impasto.
