Peatery in Drenthe

A flat, muddy peat field stretches toward a pale pink-grey sky, with a dark cut channel winding through the foreground and low hedgerows along the horizon. A heap of stacked peat sods sits at the right edge. Loose, sketchy brushwork in browns, greys and muted pinks gives the scene a raw, earthy texture.
