This painting shows a child curled up asleep, hugging a green blanket. The child’s bare feet stick out, and their head rests on their arms. Bright red flowers lie scattered on the ground in front of them, with a dark, leafy background behind. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured look. The artist focused on simple shapes and warm colors to create a cozy, dreamy feel. If you like this style, look up impasto.
