About this work

This painting shows a group of people cutting wood in a forest. The trees are bare, and the sky is a pale blue. The figures are rough and blocky, with thick brushstrokes that make the scene feel raw and urgent. The way the paint is applied—thick and textured—stands out. It’s not smooth; you can almost feel the strokes. The colors are simple: earthy browns, greens, and a touch of red in the tools. Try looking up impasto to see how this technique works in other paintings.
