Description My ode to Vincent Van Gogh's Dr. Gachet. My painting is reminiscent of VanGogh's while with all it's obvious differences, it is clear that a copy of any sort wasn't the intention. Note how even the eyes reflect a different emotion....more representative of how Dr. Gachet may have felt (after Vincent's death) about the way VanGogh was treated by most.
Don King, Canada Member Since May 2007 Artist Statement I am a self-taught artist who paints florals, still lifes, portraits and landscapes. All of my paintings are known for their often bold color choices, as well as the tension I create between a painterly and a hard edged line. The subjects I paint sometimes owe their existance more to creative interpretation than to real imagery. My artwork is sold on-line here and at other sites, in addition to the brick&mortar Galleries & Art Exhibits at which I show. For the last 10 years I've been painting and two years ago I determined it was time to give it my full time efforts. Please enjoy my work and send a comment on it if you'd like.
