A Tribute to Vincent Van Gogh

Over 700,000 views! Thank you everyone for watching and leaving comments, it means a lot!

My mom introduced me to a song that was dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh... I became inspired to put together a small slideshow of some of his works.
-----
And yes, I made this. I keep getting PMs asking for the person who made it, when the person who made it is the one you're PMing.
Thank you!~

I hope wherever you are Vincent..., I hope you know how much we love you and your work. The high esteem we place your paintings, your talent and your genius! Your spirit and legacy will never be lonely. Through your words and brushstrokes, your influence touched so many in the deepest levels of human understanding. The mind that creates and the man that suffers, I too am an artist and I take great comfort in knowing the sun that shines on me is the same one that shined on you long ago. Take care

I love how you can feel the warmth in his work

such a tragic life feel so sorry for you i had tears in my eyes when i heard his story everything about his life is a disaster. could God even for once give him a chance to be happy after all he is not a bad man.

[sabelle torres]

the most tragic life ive ever heard imagine being famous after your gone. elvis, michael jackson and marilyn monroe suffer a disastrous downfall but at least they had experience to be famous and have all the luxuries in life. i always thought that a persons life has ups and downs not until ive heard his story it seems all he had were downfalls imagine selling only 1 painting in his entire life and work in a low paying jod with no love life. this is such a tragedy.

VINCENT SAYS TO ME, BE KIND. THE WORLD IS CRUEL, SO WHY SHOULD WE BE. HE REPRESENTS THE WHOLE EXISTENTIAL HUMAN: OUR EMOTIONS, OUR INNER CHILD, OUR SUPER-EGO. HE SAYS TO ME WE ARE BROKEN, SO DON'T SEEK THE ABSOLUTE/IDEAL, THEIR IS NO FRUIT IN IDEALISM. THE SADNESS IS THE MISINTERPRETATION OF CHRIST'S STORY (BEING SO POWERFUL) IT CAN DESTROY IF NOT UNDERSTOOD OR PRACTICED IN FALSEHOOD. HE'S A MARTYR FOR ANY MODERN EXISTENTIAL MAN/WOMAN, WHO'VE FALLEN VICTIM TO A DISINGENUOUS CHURCH. SIMPLE & KIND
