Vincent van Gogh, March 30, 1853 - July 29, 1890
A Dutch painter
He produced some 900 paintings and 1100 drawings
during a period of only 10 years before he suffering mental illness
and committed suicide.
His artworks became famous after his death.
Van Gogh's artworks influence on expressionism, fauvism
and early abstraction was enormous,
and can be seen in many other aspects of 20th-century art.
The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam
is dedicated to Van Gogh's work and that of his contemporaries.

Vincent Van Gogh, i like him since i was 12.
He might not as famous as Leonardo Da Vinci, Picasso.
Yet, He is my favourite artist.
People said he is crazy, no matter himself or his art work.
Because his works is too abstractive,
the choice of colour is too strong.
Some also said that
they could see abomination, loneliness on his painting.
Maybe they are right, but, i still love these painting much.
Without reason, i feel warm and peace when i see art.
Maybe i'm freak. LOL.
There is one song
that I hope you can spend a little time to listen
