– Vincent van Gogh
Fruit Stand – 4″ x 8″ Watercolor & Sharpie
I did this little painting for the WDE over at WetCanvas. Lisilk provided the photos to paint from last weekend. I was able to squeeze this one in before we went to Oklahoma City to spend some time with my mother-in-law. It was a lot of fun!
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. For the last seven years, we’ve been having dinner with our friends, Jerry & Teresa. There is usually 30-40 people there and they serve dinner off the truck rack in Jerry’s shop. Little bit of hillbilly heaven! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
About Vincent van Gogh
The Dutch post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh worked as an artist for only ten years, but he had a profound and lasting effect on the art world. He was born in 1853 in Zundert. He briefly became a minister but was dismissed for caring too much about his impoverished parishioners. His brother, Theo, was a close friend and supporter. He only sold one painting during his lifetime. He is known for his heavy brushstrokes and strong colors. He died in 1890 of suicide.
