About this work

This painting shows a row of old buildings with red roofs and brick walls. The closest building has three tall windows with white frames and a greenish roof. Behind it, a larger stone building with arched windows and a courtyard sits on a hill. The sky is light blue with a few clouds, and a fence runs along the bottom edge. The brushstrokes are thick, giving the buildings a textured look. The colors are simple but warm, with reds, browns, and greens standing out. If you like this style, check out impasto for more on thick paint techniques.
