Mentor Artist


I picked this painting by Vincent van Gogh called "Bedroom at Arles". I picked it because I am starting off my first project this year with painting and I have learned the difficulties of blending colors and getting the colors right. This painting was a huge help to see because van Gogh painted this bedroom scene but it isn't perfectly done, yet it still looks amazing. The textures of the wood (the bed, floor, etc) looks so incredible but it isn't detailed at all. I feel like I have learned so much just by looking at van Gogh's work, especially this painting because I realized great paintings don't have to be perfect.
