Well done, guys!

“Vincent van Gogh painted ‘The Starry Night’ (1889) in order to express his emotional reaction to a scene through colour. He painted the picture during the time he was a patient in the Saint-Rémy asylum. During the time period, he painted in a “dumb furry”. He frequently had been staying up three nights in a row to paint. He stayed up at nights to paint because, as he wrote, “The night is more alive and more richly colored than the day”. He used to have fits of productivity.

Van Gogh’s work was known for its agitated and swirling brushstrokes. He used colour and brushwork to express his emotional reaction. Often he worked with thick impasto in choppy strokes or wavy ribbons. His moods frequently were passionate and vibrant. In ‘The Starry Night’, van Gogh’s brushwork is used to convey movement, and the stars and the moon seem to explode with energy. The work is, nevertheless, balanced and planned, in spite of its rash and half-hazard appearance."

I thought this painting looked familiar! It’s hanging in my guest room… one of the best masterpieces of all time!

The cocky little stars deserved it.

Well appreciate D-Squared. Thanks for the comment.

Beautifully done.
