But how do they pronounce your name in Dutch?

… and you have a real ear for song

Oh sing the praises of Vincent van Smedly,

He’s modest and won’t let it go to his headly,

He earns just enough to keep himself fedly,

He paints all day, then goes to bedly,

Thus ends our laudatory medley,

For the brilliant artist, Vincent van Smedly.

Something like that?

And one day we will all wish we had a Smedly …

Today they sing your praises, and when you’re gone it goes to auction….

Or maybe they won’t.

i don’t remember any songs about van gogh

This guy couldn’t hold a candle to Baldrik von Schmear.

Later in life, he managed an all-female rock band called the Gogh Gogh’s.

Though you may have a hard time hearing them if you start loping your ears off while wallowing in depression. Because you haven’t sold a single thing. And that failed relationship thing.

But not until you lose that ear.

Probably not for your painting, however.

Maples, shmaples. Da big bucks is in cypresses, van Smedley, I’m tellin’ ya, cypresses.

There is an exhibition of van Gogh’s work at NYC’s Metropolitan Museum currently.

He’ll be forgotten just like Salvador Dalipshutz.

Not unless you cut something off. The ear thing has been done so you’ll have to pick another part. Choose wisely.

Confidence is everything.

Missed it by that much

Where’s the really cute dog?
