"Vincent" pen


















This little drawing is from Van Gogh's self portrait. It came about after reading a great children's book called Camille and the Sunflower. It is a story of a young boy who befriends the strange artist. Camille sees that not everyone appreciates the Van Gogh's genius. The artist is even forced to leave. But through his paintings he is not forgotten. It is a fantastic book that shows Van Gogh through the eyes of a child.
