About this work

This painting shows a bright summer scene with a wooden fence in the foreground. The fence slats are painted in soft pinks, yellows, and greens, with some dark streaks. Behind it, a tree with thick branches and lush green leaves stands tall, letting light filter through. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, giving the fence and leaves a textured look. It feels like the artist quickly captured the light and colors of the moment. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint application creates texture like this.
