Today, Wednesday 30th March is the birthday of the Dutch Painter, who celebrates his 150th year.

So lets all celebrate this day in memory of Vincent Van Gogh! Happy Birthday! =D

I went to the van gogh museum when i went to amsterdam at the end of feb, it was great! (it was also my feeble attempt at being cultural)

since it's his birthday, i think ppl should post their fave van gogh painting.

ok... i would but i cant access the van gogh museum website :( i have a postcard of it tho!

The Scream isn't by Van Gogh, it's by Edvard Munch (as it says at the bottom of that picture).

Don't be afraid to see the truth, even if no one wants you to. Be yourself and not a fool. Don't ever be afraid to speak your mind and listen to criticism. Dissent is keeps our country progressive and willingness to challenge yourself is what keeps yourself ever evolving.

Are you drunk or something? ;) That painting is by Edvard Munch because it's at the bottom of the painting :P

Mwuahaha, boy do I just love making people even more embarrassed than they already are...

Oh, almost forgot! Happy birthday to Van Gough! Even though you're dead...oh well, who said ghosts couldn't have birthdays?

Personally, I just think that was the most amusing thing ever. You made my day :)

O Canada
Our home and native land
True patriot love in all thy sons command

With glowing hearts we see thee rise
The True North strong and free

From far and wide
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee

God keep our land glorious and free
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

That was a bit unecessary.

Anyway, I found a good picture of my favourite: Café Terrace.

Eeep, I'm sorry :oops: No offense was meant, it was just me being incredibly stupid with my big mouth as usual ;)

I did that painting with pastels for art class about a week ago. Let me tell you, it was REALLY hard. Van Gogh rocks. <3

Happy birthday!

Hm. I swear it was by Van Gogh.


Oh, and Ginger. I am drunk, it's my way of enjoying myself, I get hammered before starting the day so it's ok to make mistakes and get things wrong every now and then, so y'know, don't blame me. I'm only a drunk, nothing wrong with that, yepyep. I've restricted myself a bit though, I'm only allowed to have two bottles of vodka before work experience, so er, I don't break anything or get chucked out. Yup. Cornflakes and vodka with some dramboui to wake me up. Ohhh yes! Ya know, for someone who's so self conscious, you're doing yourself some great favours.

Ditto.
Especially as I used to have recurring dreams involving the sky looking quite a bit like that. I miss those dreams =(
