About this work

This painting shows a soft, misty mountain rising out of green bushes. The sky above is pale, with light brushstrokes of pink and blue. The colors are muted—mostly greens, grays, and a little white in the clouds. The artist used thick, visible brushstrokes, especially on the grass, giving it texture. The mountains look fuzzy, almost like they’re fading into the distance. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
