My friend, with whom I sometimes paint, liked the version I made previously, and wished to make something similar for her aunt. So this one we made together, being bolder in colours then I dared on my own.
I've made this painting together with a friend of mine. We are true copy cats of Vincent van Gogh (my hero). The canvas we painted on, was quite small (25 x 25 cm, I'm guessing), but oddly enough we had no trouble being in each others way, while painting. It was great fun, and my friend has a happy mum (who received it for her birthday).
I wish I could say that I drew this after I saw a girl standing that way, smiling broadly. And in a way I did, but another painter beat me to it. He was called Rien Poortvliet, so I saw it through his eyes - or rather, his drawing.

AuthorHi, I'm Bregtje. Here you can find me with my head between piles of paper, sticking stuff in arty albums and brushing away with paint. But I also can be found with my head in a newly home made cupboard or above the kitchen stove or even up side down in the garden! And now I'm developing a new hobby to add to my ever growing project list: blogging about it all! Please find my Garden blog, Kitchen blog, Homemaking blog and Art blog here! Archives
