About this work

This painting shows a bright, curvy road winding through a snowy landscape. Tall trees line the path, their branches heavy with red berries. The sky is deep blue, while the snow is pale pink and green. In the distance, a building with a white roof peeks through the trees. The brushstrokes are thick and bold, almost like the artist slapped paint onto the canvas. This technique is called *impasto*—it makes the colors pop and feel almost textured. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint for dramatic effects.
