@arekathevampyre I'd never heard that song before, but it's really beautiful!!

Now you have a song to listen to while appreciating Van Gogh's works

aww that is such a cute painting !! 

have you heard of the song 'Vincent' by Don McLean ? Is is a very old song but I heard it in school and I like it (btw I am not that old haha)

I always liked that song. (although it is rather sad it still sounds good)

 

Anyone ever watch the old Sister Wendy art series (on PBS in the US)? She was a real Catholic nun who was some kind of art expert I think. In her show she usually talked about one specific piece of art for the whole episode and got into all sorts of info about the art. Really taught me to appreciate some works more than I expected.

You can find lots of her videos on youtube if you search for "Sister Wendy".

Sister Wendy is still on sometimes. Usually as filler, like those Rick Steves bits.   I remember her talking about "something naughty" going on or being implied a lot.
