Answer:

Long and short brush strokes, and the dotting technique

Step-by-step explanation:

In the lower part of the painting, where the hill ground on which a person sits is described, the brush strokes are short. The technique used is also called the hatching technique with build up tones and blend them, using different colors in different strokes. In this painting, the various tones of brown are used to build up the ground of the hill.

The road, trees, and the mountain in the background are also done in the same hatching technique, but with long brush strokes. We can see there red and brown overlapping in long strokes that follow the direction of the road and the rise of the hill.

The rest of the painting – ground, the sky, and treetops – are done in dotted brushstrokes, using the round brush. This is a stippling technique, making random dots to create the pattern, color, and texture. It can be done in one color, like the sky and the ground, or in more shades, like the trees. However, the stippling technique relies on using the multiple colors of various shades, so it has to be done in monochrome tones. In case there are various dots in various colors describing the object, it is called pointillism. Therefore, when we talk about using a certain technique on one object on the painting here, it is stippling, but if we look at the painting as a whole we can say it is partly done in pointillism.
