Sunflowers


After looking at this painting in class, I really wanted to write my blog about it. I have always been fascinated with a lot of Van Gogh's pieces and I have to say this is one of my favorites. I like the simplicity with the use of colors. There are only a few colors used and I think it helps the subject stand out. I also really like the texture from his paint strokes, I think it gives the painting a very warm feeling. A simple, yet beautiful piece. After looking at the picture more closely I also realized that it says Vincent on the vase which I didn't notice at first. Its a very small yet cool detail.
