Sometimes i forget, living in the Netherlands, how beautiful the digital collection of the RIjksmuseum is, highly recommended. I like how you can zoom in on paintings.

A still life of oleanders from August 1888 is the most depressing thing, the perfect time capsule representing the dirty, dry, horrid heat and emptiness of most Augusts I think, certainly this one. #subtweet #VanGogh
On a more upbeat note, it rained this morning, still more is possible! So, out like a lamb to mock my sullenness?

By Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890), The Red Vineyard at Arles, 1888, oil on canvas, 28.7x35.8 inches (73x91 cm), Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow. #arthistory #painting #oilpainting #vangogh

From the website Gateway to Russia: ‘"We saw a completely red vineyard – red as red wine. From a distance it looked yellow, above it – a green sky, around – purple earth after the rain, here and there on it – yellow reflections of the sunset." This is how the artist described the environs of Arles in a letter to his brother Theo. This incredibly bright painting is considered one of the few that were sold during the artist's lifetime.’

This #woodblockprint “Plum Park at Kameido,” by #UtagawaHiroshige was also featured in the exhibition in #Dresden where I made a small pencil sketch. Now, at home, I’ve created a version using the Japanese GANSAI TAMBI Art Nouveau colors. For the plum blossoms, I used masking fluid. It was fun to think about what technique and what kind of paints I could use to reproduce the woodblock print.
#VanGogh painted an oil version of this woodblock print.

I still have van Gogh in the back of my mind.
Here’s the third version of my sunflowers. Maybe I’ll turn into a series of 7 drawings. Just without the fame. 😂
The Neocolor II pencils look great on top of a watercolor wash. That said, slightly rougher paper probably looks more interesting.
