About this work

This painting shows a woman sitting on a chair, her legs crossed and one arm resting on her knee. She’s wearing a red dress with swirling patterns, and her bare arms and hands are painted in thick, textured strokes. The background is dark, making her face and clothes stand out. The brushstrokes here are bold and uneven, almost like the paint was scraped on. This technique is called *impasto*, where thick layers of paint create a tactile surface. Look up impasto to see how artists use it to add texture and depth.
