Study for a Panel

About this work

This painting looks like a quick sketch with loose, sketchy lines. You can see what might be a tree trunk on the right, some branches, and a few blurry shapes that could be leaves or clouds. The colors are mostly soft browns, greens, and a bit of red, all mixed together in a rough way. The edges are uneven, like the artist didn’t worry about perfection. The paper has a tan background, and the red and black lines pop against it. It feels like a practice piece—maybe for a bigger work.
