Popular Post Charlie E Posted August 29, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 If you're not familiar with him, it's Vincent Van Gogh. His shirt has the print of Starry Night, one of his most famous paintings. frankorona, jr42, Tomanydogs and 14 others 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Nice. Looks like it was before he removed his ear. Charlie E and RabidAlien 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the above illustration was a self portrait, that would be correct. Charlie E 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 Ok, I asked Siri. She said it was his left ear. Either way, it’s a great project Charlie! Charlie E and meflick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I suppose if it's a self portrait it would be a mirror image. If so, the ear showing would be his right. Either way I love his paintings.

GusGustin Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 We went (my lovely wife and I) to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Pretty cool - and - we made the mistake a few times of calling him Van GO .. I guess that's just what us ENGLISH speaking dips do. We were actually RUDELY corrected more than once .. hahahahaha .. "You Americans! It's pronounced VAN GOFF, NOT Van GOLF or VAN GO, it's VAN GOFF" I just smiled and said .. I'm just an ignorant Californian wanting to see some VAN GO stuff, can you tell me where to find the VAN GO Museum?" hahahahahahaha heppnerguy and Charlie E 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 Charlie, You might consider coping some of Van Gogh's famous paintings and sellling them in a garage sale. You might make a fortune, is someone thinks they are getting a genuine painting of his. Just kidding, of course but it was a really cool idea of yours to give your art entwined with Van Gogh's portrait. Nice job.

I had a print of Starry Night that I didn't like much because it didn't show the whole painting so I used part of it for the backer. Worked out well since I didn't like it before and now it makes me smile! heppnerguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
