Van Gogh

Details

Part of the Spirits of Art series — a collection of portraits dedicated to legendary artists whose influence continues to live beyond time. Van Gogh glows against his own swirling night sky, stars turning slowly above a golden field. The skeletal face still carries his fiery red beard and searching stillness, lit from within by warm amber where his eyes once burned. So much feeling is packed into every swirl and stroke — loneliness and wonder held together at once. That is the heart of Vincent, who found beauty in the ordinary and painted it with his whole soul. To live with this piece is to keep some of that restless, tender light close by. The flesh may fade, but here his spirit keeps blazing among the stars he loved. Acrylic on Canvas 20 x 28 inches
