This painting shows two large, folded shapes that look like hills or mountains. The colors are mostly brown, orange, and white, with rough, uneven strokes. The background is a warm reddish-brown, and the folds in the hills are sharp and jagged. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to create texture, almost like scratching into the paper. It feels raw and unfinished, as if the hills were quickly captured in motion. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
