About this work

This painting shows a woman with a bright red shawl wrapped around her head and shoulders. Her face is turned slightly away, and her hands rest on her lap. The background is a mix of thick, swirling brushstrokes in greens, yellows, and blues, making it look like a busy, textured landscape. The way the paint is layered and blended gives the scene a rough, almost physical feel. It’s not smooth—you can almost see the strokes under your fingers. If you like this style, look up impasto.
