The Starry Night

Actually this is the choice that I made for doing research,write a journal and talk about it for the lesson Introduction to Visual Arts that Mr. Chua ask us to do,"The Starry Night".Well,I wanted to share this again in my blog.
The first time that I saw this image when I was a little kid,I know nothing about it,and for me it was just a simple image.As it happens,I met up again with this image last year,feels familiar,and it was in a book that I'm reading,"The Starry Starry Night" by a Taiwanese writer,Jimmy.I thought that was his paintings since after that,until last week only I realize that this painting was done by a great artist,Vincent Willem van Gogh.
I do research about this artist and his painting,and I found out that,there is a song "Vincent" by Don Mclean written as a tribute to Vincent van Gogh and it is also known by its opening line "Starry Starry Night".The song clearly demonstrates a deep-seated admiration for not only the work of Vincent van Gogh,but also for the man himself.
While looking at this paintings,listening to the song,understand it,and you will really figure out something that very abstracting,interesting and unexplained feeling about this artist.
