When my brain hurts from all the thinking involved to make a decent painting (perspective, value, composition, color, …), Go julieGogh means Fun … just play and let the paints speak for themselves. This one is in Taos – I wanted to capture this magical place – the vastness of the trees all the way up to the Big Sky – the quiet – the stream – the cute little (out)house with path up to the art studio where great things happen. I was trying to copy my favorite Van Gogh (modeled by my guest Ruby).
