About this work

This painting shows a bright orange wall with a dark red-brown shape that looks like a doorway or window frame.

The brushwork is thick and uneven, with some areas blending while others stand out sharply. The signature in the corner reads *Yessayan*, hinting at the artist’s name. The painting feels more like a quick sketch than a polished work, with bold colors and visible texture. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint layers create this tactile effect.
