Impressionists so misunderstood at a time when this style of art was unappreciated. The imagery of the exploding paints is clever for this Van Gogh! B0l

You're welcome! "For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream" sad, beautiful thing!—Van Gogh

Thanks for your note. Glad you enjoyed my write. Yes, he and others were misunderstood. Guess it is in the eye of the one looking at it at the time. I only like some of his work. Have a wonderful/colorful day writing away................

Quite descriptive of that painting. It is a very unique one that calls for one to take notice so is your work. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

That particular painting is like a sky full of supernovae all going off at once, I wonder if he was after taking magic mushrooms or some hallucinogenic, with Van Gogh’s mental disposition anything is possible, an excellently described Monoku Paula, cheers David

His painting certainly could be explained as an explosion of color in his dark blue sky.
