Van Gogh's letters to his brother Theo were truly insightful as you've rightly said- A complex mind that battled between hope and despair.

Dear Geeta, your enormous and beautiful talent is so apparent in these bio-poems about great artist and men. They are more powerful and lasting than a prose biography because yopu so well, manage to communicate their human essence and presence. Thank you for these priceless and unique gifts.

To successfully pull off a project of this scope and magnitude takes an exceptionally good poet. And Geeta, you are certainly that poetess. This series, along with your others, are all a labour of love. And a great joy to behold!

Van Goh is indeed one of the greatest painters this world has ever produced. Yet, his personality is embedded with so much loneliness and pain. I had the opportunity to attend a showcase of his works featuring his 'bedroom paintings'. The play of colors in his paintings are also extraordinary.

Probably you've heard about his ear (left one?) . I think he cut his finger and toe nails also. ;) bri

My mate and I visited the Van Gogh art museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and I was surprised to see art by quite a few other artists there. One of Vincent's was HUGE, maybe 20 by 30 feet?

'implicitly'...I assume THIS (one of 3 I found) definition is what you mean: 'without question or reservation; absolutely'.

When we enjoy his exquisite and extraordinary paintings, we tend to overlook the abject poverty in which he lived and total lack of resources to complete one. Top score for this magnificent series on one of the topmost talents in painting, who will be remembered for ages to come.
