Painting of forest undergrowth with green shrubs, dry grasses and tree trunks, rendered in short dabbed brushstrokes.

Undergrowth

Loose, dabbed brushstrokes render a woodland floor of low green plants, dry grasses and a tree trunk at left, with a second trunk and pale dappled light above. The thick, mosaic-like paint surface gives the forest edge a shimmering, textured vitality.
