About this work

This painting shows a village nestled between rolling hills. The houses have red roofs and sit close together, while the hills behind them are painted in soft blues and greens. Up front, a large white wall blocks part of the view, with a few small windows or doors barely visible. The brushstrokes are thick and loose, giving the scene a rough, textured look. The colors feel warm but muted, like a quiet afternoon. If you like this style, check out the technique: impasto next.
