About The Artwork

I have no trust in portraits. Perhaps only Frank Hal's succeeded in remaining honest in this genre. But, all the same, having conceived the idea of painting an homage to another of my teachers -the great mad Dutchman-I looked through all his self portraits. Odd as it may seem, I saw nothing in them but an external mask. And suddenly, a marvel! The decision came unexpectedly. I suddenly saw one of my favorite Van Gogh painting in anew light. The Potatoe Eaters. A humble family dinner. But the picture contains a very powerful psychological charge. It is deeply hidden. This is where the artists mastery lies. A father is eating dinner with his family, and I wanted to see Van Gogh in the role of a father. Better than any self-portrait, this man truly conveys the image of Vincent. And to make the idea more clear, I bandaged this man's ear. This picture consists both-a homage to a great artist, and in my interpretation of my favorite paintings.
