Vincent Van Gogh

Starry Night By Alex Ruiz

The brush was stirring with life

Stars swirled and dropped from the bristles

He cupped them and put on the canvas

They vibrated with the village and cypress

 

They all lusted for life like Vincent

    Van Gogh has a special way with lines, colors and sunflowers. True to form your lines are similar in effect to Van Gogh's brushes Nicely Sumana!

  8. Many of us do emulate, lust for life as did Vincent, sometimes without true awareness. I wonder if his painting is archetype?
