Original Expressionist Landscape Painting on Canvas

This item is an original landscape painting executed in an expressionist, impasto style on a rectangular stretched canvas. The composition features a central blue river or stream flowing forward from a background of dense, green foliage and darkly-trunked trees. In the upper register, a stylized mountain peak sits beneath a dramatic, solid deep red sky, suggesting a sunset or surreal atmosphere. The medium appears to be acrylic or oil paint, applied with heavy texture and visible brushstrokes or palette knife work to create depth and movement. Physically, the canvas is unframed, showing the painted edges typical of contemporary works. The color palette is dominated by earthy greens, browns, and blues, contrasted sharply by the stark white of the mountain's crest and the bold red sky. There is no visible signature or maker's mark in the lower corners, suggesting it may be a student or amateur folk art piece from the late 20th to early 21st century. The condition appears stable with no obvious flaking or mechanical damage, though some light surface dust is present. The craftsmanship reflects a raw, intuitive approach to nature rather than formal academic realism.
