Impasto
Impasto is a technique used in painting, where paint is laid on an area of the surface thickly,[1] usually thick 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 appears to be coming out of the canvas.
