Impasto painting is a technique where thick layers of paint are applied to the canvas or surface, creating a textured, three-dimensional effect. This method allows artists to add depth, movement, and a tactile quality to their work, often using palette knives to build up the paint. The resulting texture captures light and shadow, enhancing the visual dynamism of the artwork. Impasto is commonly associated with the bold, expressive styles of artists like Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet.
