Van Gogh’s art offers a reminder that you can always add a bit more paint. The amount of visual incident in this scene is amazing. He was very in tune with Nature.

Indeed he saw and created as others didn’t. Which may not have been, in his case, a recipe for happiness.
He was extraordinary, wasn’t he, Anthony.
He certainly was driven to get somewhere ahead of us all!
very true, Anthony
More paint and more feeling.
Van Gogh! The colors and the texture…!!! A reproduction is a poor imitation…(K)
very true — Van Gogh’s paintings are so marvelous when we can see all the beautiful particularity in the actual work — the color choices are just so powerful and precise — oh, I love Van Gogh, Kerfe
Indeed, Janice, Van Gogh sure was an artist who painted life with such great feeling.
Me too.
I think he understood quite well when to stop adding the paint.
I think you are right, Emma. He was an instinctive and wise painter.
