Vincent Van Gogh Painting entitled, The Bedroom (1889) employs the artist signature painterly style. Impasto. Expressive, original thick paint applied with quick gestural angst and rapid thick brushstrokes.
Impasto is defined as a historical and inventive framework:
“In contrast to glazing-the methodical building up of thin layers of paint-impasto involves applying the paint thickly and liberally, so that it retains the marks and ridges left by the brush. Most artist enjoy the expressive and textural qualities which impasto lends to a painting, and the buttery consistency of oil paint lends itself well to this technique.
Impasto can be applied with a brush or a painting knife. The paint may be used straight from the the tube, or diluted with a little medium so that it is malleable, yet thick enough to stand apart from the support.”

“For subject matter they turned to portraiture, still life, and landscape, but in the latter, at least in the art of Matisse, they revisualized Impressionism culture of leisure as a pagan ideal of the joy of life. Most important of all, the fauvist painters committed themselves to pictorial autonomy, which yielded an art delicately poised between expression derived from emotional, subjective experience stimulated by pure optical sensation.”
