Music in the Woods

I love this painting by the Scottish artist Edward Atkinson Hornel (1864-1933). Painted in oil on canvas the paint is just heavily applied. I almost wonder if he did not paint this with a palette knife.

 While still a student he painted little woodland scenes like this one. There are many paintings featuring
little girls chasing butterflies, sitting in the grass or smelling flowers.
