Vincent became obsessed with colour. To save money, he tried out different colour combinations using threads of coloured wool. This meant he didn’t have to use expensive paint unnecessarily. Vincent van Gogh, Small Bottle with Peonies and Blue Delphiniums (1886) #VanGoghBlossoms
It was fun scribbling on the mirror, there's a sense of freedom knowing it will only last a few moments. I did a couple, not spending more than 5 minutes on each. This was the one I was most happy with https://t.co/lg0SjW74FL #drawing#selfportrait#artstudent#art#artist
Today’s drawing using charcoal and a tissue. I first did a quick sketch of my little pot plant 👉 wiped it over roughly with a tissue 👉 worked on it again 👉 wiped it away roughly 👉 worked on it again. This adds depth to your work without having to try too hard. #dailydrawing
The modern art in Paris inspired Vincent to adopt a lighter, brighter and looser painting style. In this work, he also applied a new technique: pointillism. He painted dozens of little dots of unmixed colour next to each other, which appear to blend in front of our eyes.
