Great portrait with distinctive Van Gogh background. Until we visited the Van Gogh museum this summer I didn’t realise the involvement of his brother.

Superb work, John. An absolute cracker, painted very much in the Van Gogh style. What a pleasure to see such work.

Theo was a big influence in his life. It’s worked really well John.

Brilliant. I read the book, ''Lust for Life'' while on national service in Malaya in 1956 and it inspired me to take up painting.

Love this Van Gogh style John. Fantastic portrait. You were thinking outside the box. The judges were not!

Oil on canvas, size 16x12 inches. Painted this for the Loving Vincent competition. Theo does not fetcher much when Vincent comes up. However without his brother there would have not been the artist we know. However the judges did not agree, or catch on with my idea. lol.
