About this work

This painting shows a big tree in the middle with a wide, flat sky above. The sky has soft blue and white brushstrokes, like clouds moving fast. Below, the ground is green and yellow, with smaller trees and bushes dotting the scene. The colors are warm but not too bright. The tree looks thick and full, almost like it’s holding up the sky. The brushstrokes are thick in spots, making the tree’s bark and leaves pop. This style makes the painting feel alive, even though it’s just a landscape. Look up impasto next to see how thick paint like this is used.
