What was unusual about Homer's studio works?

  • Feather light brush-strokes

  • Weight and Density in works

  • Very large canvases

  • Abstract themes

Answer

Homer's studio works were unusual in their weight and density. This is because he was known for using a thick application of paint, which created a more three-dimensional effect. He also used a variety of materials, such as charcoal, oil paint, and pastels, to create a textured surface. This gave his works a sense of depth and realism.
