In thick, sweeping brushstrokes, a flamelike cypress unites the churning sky and the quiet village below.

I have spent my life devouring every Van Gogh morsel available - my house is full of him, books, prints, writings, magnets, coffee cups, mouse pads, coloring books, attempts (quite flawed) of my own Starry Nights and Sunflowers.
