Introduction
Print this section Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), Dutch painter who exemplified the idea of artist as tortured genius. His paintings are characterized by thick brush strokes, brilliant colors, and jagged lines, through which Van Gogh expressed his emotional response to his subjects rather than providing an accurate description of them. As a result he became a leader in the development of expressionism in painting.

WetCanvas! Explore Media Oil Painting PDA View Full Version : impasto moonduck 07-27-2006, 06:33 PM Does anyone do impasto painting in this forum? I was bored with a painting I was working on, so I just started blobbing on color with an impasto knife. It is fun, but I've never trid it before, so I'm guessing that there is probably a more correct was to do it then just blobbing it on. Can anyone give me a few tips? It certainly has livened things up! 07-27-2006, 06:42 PM Yeah I've tried it- its really liberating! here was my effort
http://www.wetcanvas.com/Community/images/27-Jul-2006/83841-Boat_at_cockenzie.jpg
I applied paint with pallette knife only and really went for it!!
I was inspired by a Scottish painter called John Lowrie Morrison (or JOLOMO as he signs his pics- i recomend you google him very inspiring) after seeing an exhibition. I guess this is an abstract expressionist type thing (at least that is how he described it!)
Just get stuck in and post us your attempts!!
Ryan moonduck 07-27-2006, 06:51 PM that's a fantastic painting. so alive! i love it. i'm already inspired. do you use different size and shape knives? i only have two at the moment...one rounded plastic and one pointed metal.

Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890)
Van Gogh is now one of the most well-known post-Impressionist painters, although he was not widely appreciated in his lifetime. Vincent Van Gogh was born on 30 March 1853 in Zundert in the southern Netherlands, the son of a pastor. In 1869 he took his first job, working in the Hague branch of an international art dealing firm. He began to write to his younger brother Theo, a correspondence which continued for the rest of Van Gogh's life. Van Gogh's job took him to London and Paris, but he was not interested in the work and was dismissed in 1876. He briefly became a teacher in England, and then, deeply interested in Christianity, a preacher in a mining community in southern Belgium. In 1880, at the age of 27, he decided to become an artist. He moved around, teaching himself to draw and paint and receiving financial support from Theo. In 1886 Van Gogh joined Theo in Paris, and met many artists including Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Pissarro and Gauguin, with whom he became friends. His style changed significantly under the influence of Impressionism, becoming lighter and brighter. He painted a large number of self-portraits in this period.

Vincent Van Gogh (1853-1890), Dutch
The history of Impressionism would not be complete without the distinctive work of Vincent van Gogh. Paintings of this world famous artist are at the top of today's art price range.
He began from drawing and painting dark realistic scenes, but after meeting Impressionists he employed their motifs, bright colours and style of painting.
V an Gogh's life was afflicted with mental trouble. His short period of artistic co-operation with Gauguin ended with van Gogh's symbolic act of self-mutilation: he cut off an earlobe. Although most of his last months van Gogh spent under psychiatric treatment, paintings from this period brought him the greatest fame. Van Gogh's work became a basic influence on the development of the Fauvism and Expressionism.

Auvers sur Oise: The Original Impressionist Landscape April 10, 2007 I had an uncanny sense of deja vu when I first laid eyes on Auvers sur Oise thus I could not figure out why it breathed familiarity. I then realized I had been entranced before by much of the scenery, which hung on the walls of major museums and was printed in art history books.

In February 1888 van Gogh settled at Arles, where he painted more than 200 canvases in 15 months. During this time he sold no pictures, was in poverty, and suffered recurrent nervous crisis with hallucinations and depression. He became enthusiastic for the idea of founding an artists' co-operative at Arles and towards the end of the year he was joined by Gauguin . But as a result of a quarrel between them van Gogh suffered the crisis in which occured the famous incident when he cut off his left ear (or part of it), an event commemorated in his Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear (Courtauld Institute, London).

Vincent Van Gogh Biography
Generally considered the greatest Dutch painter and draughtsman after Rembrandt. With Cezanne and Gauguin the greatest of Post-Impressionist artists. Vincent Van Gogh powerfully influenced the current of Expressionism in modern art. His work, all of it produced during a period of only 10 years, hauntingly conveys through its striking colour, coarse brushwork, and contoured forms the anguish of a mental illness that eventually resulted in suicide. His father was a Protestant pastor, and van Gogh first trained for the ministry, but he abandoned his studies in 1878 and went to work as a lay preacher among the impoverished miners in Belgium. In his zeal he gave away his own worldly goods to the poor and was dismissed for his literal interpretation of Christ's teaching. Vincent Van Gogh remained in Belgium until 1880, when he found that art was his vocation. From this time he worked at his new `mission' with single-minded frenzy, and although he often suffered from extreme poverty and undernourishment, his output in the ten remaining years of his life was prodigious: about 800 paintings and a similar number of drawings. From 1881 to 1885 van Gogh lived in the Netherlands, sometimes in lodgings, supported by his devoted brother Theo. The most famous picture from this period being The Potato Eaters (Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam; 1885). In February 1886 he moved to Paris, where he met Pissarro, Degas, Gauguin, Seurat and Toulouse-Latrec.
