Self Portrait In The Style Of.

Vincent van Gogh. When I look at this painting, I giggle. Maybe I have been taking way too much cold medicine. The goal was to have more van Gogh lines demarcating the features, but, my old "control self" kept smoothing and blending. I have one painting day left of this journey and I am going to post the final painting on Monday. Just a little treat to me. "Take a few days." I say to myself. "Thanks!" I say back. : )

Vincent's Clogs

I was in a mood to paint in the style of Vincent van Gogh. I saw this wooden shoes painting of his and I thought, "Perfect." I don't know why I thought that, but I did. I so thoroughly enjoyed doing this painting. His life and paintings are equally fascinating. And, knowing he did it all wearing these stiff wooden clogs. Oh, to walk a mile in these shoes.
