Early paintings often feature brick farm buildings and cottages and over time the buildings became less central to the composition and were placed in the middle distance. Most of his later paintings are landscapes, particularly dunescapes based on the broad ridge of sand dunes near Haarlem. His later paintings also often include stylized foliage and a blasted elm or oak tree dominating the foreground, as in Hawking Party with a Falconer" (1666). Wijnants also painting Italianate landscapes
