Vincent Print

Like every aspiring artist who loves Post Impressionism for its subject matter, vibrant colour and the freedom from tradition it represents, I looked to Van Gogh for inspiration. I was young, I was impressionable and he seemed to be the hero of misunderstood artists everywhere. Much later I found out he was much more human than the Don McLean song, Starry Starry Night, would have you believe. He may have been a tortured genius who was too good for this world but he was also an alcoholic who turned violent when he was drinking; his personal hygiene was appalling; and he had an untreated STD which he happily spread around. So it set me thinking about how to make this godlike figure more accessible and oddly more vulnerable. Portraying him as a gorilla kind of made sense. So here is Vincent Van Gorilla, surrounded by some of the images which made him famous, looking suitably misunderstood.
