A tribute to Vincent Van Gogh

The house where Van Gogh stayed inCuesmes in 1880; while living here he decided to become an artist
Poorab's abstract art inspired by some of his work though he asked me not to post it
Sunflower:My first hand at abstarct and tribute to this great artist

Vincent with pipe

After re-reading his letters for the nth time,
i believe that he passed away due to some other reason than what he is known for.
I wish i could paint with the intensity that he did...
