About this work

This painting shows a woman with a calm face, her eyes closed and lips slightly parted. Her skin is smooth, with soft light catching one shoulder. Behind her, swirling blues and greens mix with hints of yellow and red, like a dreamy background. The brushstrokes are thick and blended, giving the colors a soft glow. The artist used a technique that makes light and shadow blend smoothly. Next, look up sfumato to see how this effect works in other art.
