Honestly, does this look like a van Gogh?! The treatment of the eyes and nose is very uncharacteristic, I think.
This painting looks like a crazed Gordie Lightfoot or something. It's good, and muddy and kinda van Gogh-esque, but, it's just not him.
I had the opportunity to see 3 van Gogh's in Vancouver this last weekend, as part of the "Monet to Dali" show. It was really good--there were two pieces there I had not seen before. Same goes for the 3 Cezannes. I looked at "The Brook" for a good 1/2 hour.
Got into a life drawing class night before last, and have been doing a lot of drawing generally.
Stay tuned,
Colin
