This painting shows a bright, messy garden full of flowers and trees. The colors are thick and bold—yellows, greens, and purples pop against dark shadows. In the background, a building with a yellow roof sits next to a dark blue sky. The brushstrokes are heavy, almost like the paint was slapped on. It feels alive, like you could reach in and touch the petals. This style is called impasto—look that up next.
