Alex, this is awesome. Your brushwork is so fresh, natural, without pretense and at the same time, so descriptive. This is where many artists stumble, I feel: getting the spontaneous, interesting brushwork going, but failing to make it all mean something, describe something...so that all that "bravura" paint handling exists for its own sake, resulting in a painting that appears...self indulgent. Your paint handling, on the other hand, is exquisite, joyous and it is describing something tangible, real, vivid...what an awesome gift you possess!
As to how to categorize the painting - I don't think it matters. I think it would only matter to you during the painting process, how your characterization of it informs your process....
