I intended to have a career in art and studied all through school and into college. I realized that it would never happen when I compared myself with my peers. I do feel a strong connection with Van Gogh because I was born one hundred years to the day after him.
Well that’s certainly something to be proud of.....I took an interest in art, strictly for decoration purposes when we redid the house about 25 years ago. We’d see something that might go with some new colors......like a Monet over the piano. I dunno, I just somehow got interested in VanGogh, Theo and starving artists of that time.....Don McLean really impressed my heart with ‘Vincent’. I’m not in any way knowledgeable about these painters but enjoy reading about them and look through their paintings when I get an itch to change something in the house that might compliment a painting or visa versa. We’ve had Southwest, English Cottage, Traditional in our den.......now we’re going rustic......gotta look for some more art.....thoughts? :)
