Impasto
In English, the borrowed Italian word impasto most commonly refers to a technique used in
painting, where
paint is laid on an area of the surface (or the entire
canvas) very thickly, usually thickly enough that the
brush or
painting-knife strokes are visible. Paint can also be mixed right on the canvas. When dry, impasto provides texture, the paint coming out of the canvas.
