Vincent van
Gogh (March 30, 1853 in Zundert - July 29, 1890 in Auvers-sur-Oise) was a Dutch
draughtsman and painter, classified as a Post-Impressionist. His paintings and
drawings include some of the world's best known, most popular, and most
expensive pieces. He suffered from recurrent bouts of mental illness about
which there are many competing theories and during one episode cut off a part
of his ear. Van Gogh spent his early life as an art dealer, teacher and
preacher, and he only embarked upon a career as an artist in 1880, at the age
of 27. Initially he worked in sombre colours, until an encounter in Paris with
Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism accelerated his artistic development. He
produced all of his works, some 900 paintings and 1100 drawings, during the
last ten years of his life. Most of his best-known works were produced in the
final two years of his life, and in the two months before his death he painted
90 pictures.

ResponderEliminaryes Van Gogh was the best crazy artist!
ResponderEliminarI think it sounds good, however, you can never know what you might have been, can you? There are so many possibilities, so many variables, so many roads you might have taken, you might have been a hundred different things. I agree that it is never too late to learn, however. :)
ResponderEliminarI definitely agree. I also like this statement
ResponderEliminarI like the sentiment. I'm not sure what I might have been if I'd done things different years ago. With all the changes I've been through in the last 4 years, I like to say "it's never too late to make a new start."
