We have a print of this in my art class. I always loved looking at it, good to see someone recreated it.

i almost did this one, i'm glad you did though, you're much better at landscapes than me. i would have made it bigger, but it's a good start

When I saw this contest, I inmediatly thought of you and this particular painting! Your thing right away Roy, this is looking very beautiful!

Sweetcell (Dec 1, 2006)

I was looking at this one too, but when I saw how ragged and thick the paint was and how he combined colors I thought nope, try something else.

I really think your capturing his use of colors and layering the paint, but maybe you should have extended the canvas a bit lengthwise, it looks like you may run out of room. This is one of the most amazing contests ever. NOW is when the talent shines.

Roytje (Dec 4, 2006)

Sweetcell:Yes, I saw that problem too late, is it maybe possible to get more room?
Thanks for the comments so far :)

solve (Dec 10, 2006)

Some of your strokes are right on, others bold. Even so this is a very well done recreation! Nice work : )

Roytje (Dec 10, 2006)

Yes, I wanted to revise it another time, but I hadn't enough space (for the second time :()
But thank you!

dude, how could this not make it to the Showcase?? haven't seen one of these styles in a very, very long time! you did an excellent job, I knew instantly that it was Van Gogh. I like your take on this too because you didn't try to make it look exactly like it, and there's a blur in parts of it that makes it look softer compared to the orig. that has all the intricate details, which seem quite intense and sharp. But you still did great.

Roytje (Apr 4, 2008)

Thank you! Such a comment means a lot to me :)

Very nice Roytje! I too have this print in living room. Thought about recreating it, but man, so tedious.
