About this work

This painting shows a person lying on a grassy slope, looking down. Their hair is bright and sunlit, while the rest of their body blends into the landscape. Tall grass and trees surround them, painted in quick, loose brushstrokes. The artist used thick, textured paint to show light hitting the skin and grass. The colors feel warm and natural, like a summer day. If you like this style, look up impasto.
