In Ashdown Forest, Sussex

About this work

This painting shows a forest scene with many trees and bushes. The trees are mostly green, and some have brown trunks. There are some white flowers in the front. The background is darker, with more trees. The painting is done in a way that makes the trees and bushes look soft and blurry. This is because the artist used a technique called impasto, which means they put thick layers of paint on the canvas.
