The Man Who has reproduced Gogh's work the most in the World #4

The next day, they visited the Van Gogh Museum. They lined up in a long line and went inside. The museum was crowded with tourists. Xiaoyoung quietly looks around. And he muttered, "The colors are different." And he didn't say much more.

Also, I was looking at their reproductions and thought they were fooled by sample images. When they made the reproductions, they put a lot of oil paint on the brush. But in fact, Van Gogh didn't use that much paint.
All sample imeges were taken from the front. Therefore, they didn't know the true thickness of the painting.

"I've been making reproductions for 20 years, which is incomparable to the real work." There was no smile in the encounter between Xiaoyoung and Van Gogh.

The next day, they moved to France. "Last night I was thinking about how to paint after returning to Dafen," said Xiaoyoung.
In France, first of all, they visited Arles, where Van Gogh had recuperated, and the cafe that became the motif of "Cafe Terrace at Night". So Xiaoyoung set up his easel like Van Gogh and painted the reproduction of "Café Terrace at Night" while looking at the true colors. Xiaoyoung thought that the blue sky in this work was a production. Because the night sky in China that he knows is darker. However, when he came here, he knew that the night sky was really blue.

At the end of the trip, they visited Van Gogh's tomb. Xiaoyoung said that he had a strong respect for Van Gogh and his hardships had been passed down to Van Gogh.

After returning to Dafen, Xiaoyoung reported to his friends about the trip. He shared his impressions of the city of Amsterdam and France, seeing the real Gogh works, and noticing that he didn't have a piece of his own work. He said he was a craftsman and that it was hopelessly difficult for a craftsman to become a painter.

After his contemplation, Xiaoyoung decided to draw his own original painting while drawing a reproduction. Xiaoyoung visited his hometown and painted, some original works. His touch and color were greatly influenced by Gogh. In his first presentation, he painted his own workshop as a motif.
He selected to draw about his life, not Van Gogh's life. No one knows if his painting will be appreciated, but he decided to start.
