Tribute to Vincent
“Tribute to Vincent”
9x12 Oil on Linen | NFS
It has taken me sometime to even begin in the slightest to understand Van Gogh. He is an enigma to my painting soul. This painting came to me when I found this crushed copper pot in an antique store. I wondered what happened to it...what crushed it...what its story was. It was no longer perfect, no longer symmetrical. I knew its purpose was to hold the sunflowers in this crazy idea of a Tribute painting to a painter with a beautiful mind that appeared crushed in itself.
“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” ~Van Gogh
