Artist Angist

6/11/2017

 
Thinking about Van Gogh reminds me of the time I decided to paint like Vincent...
About four years ago I wanted to reproduce his sunflowers. I don't normally paint; perhaps inclined to do so because, my life, at the time felt as I've known his to be... A bit manic, and strong emotional turmoil filled with abandonment.



I've noticed myself when having strong emotions. I've turned to art as my vice of expression.


Unfortunately, the reproduction painting to this day is missing- On the flip side... It's been a very productive week!


Below I give you- (drum roll) the process of my madness- and the end: side by side with Van Gogh's sunflowers. Included is also a crap picture of Van Goghs cypress trees I also attempted to paint.


Are you underwhelmed? Ha! I did preface this by
"I am not a painter!!"
