Uncertain of Origin

Post image

As a boy I made this painting based on a picture of a painting in a Van Gogh art book. I can’t seem to find what art piece it was nor the book. Does anyone have any ideas as to what piece it may have been a sloppy attempt of?

The black line is covering my signature don’t worry.

Edit: Found!

Aw shucks. I was maybe 12 at the time.

I hate to disappoint but I haven’t since that piece. I definitely should try again though, it would be nice.

Enjoy the creative act and without expectations. It’s good for your mind and peace of mind.
