As you all know, Van Gogh is my favorite artist! Until today, I had never
taken a tour of his museum, which is located in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Amazing!!!!!! This permanent collection houses over 200 paintings and
500 drawings. Fun fact, did you know that Van Gogh was only an artist
for 10 short years and he created over 2000 pieces of artwork - 860 of
them were oil paintings.

Let's look at the Van Gogh Museum Tour in 4K.
Step into Vincent’s world and enjoy the private video tour.
I am including the first YouTube episode that looks at Van Gogh's
self portraits.

Another fun fact, did you know that you can see
Vincent Van Gogh's, Self-Portrait, 1887 right here in IL
at the Art Institute of Chicago!
Today I challenge you to create a self-portrait (a picture of yourself)
Use anything you might have at home.
A pencil, a pen, chalk, paint, colored pencils, your computer...be creative!
Email me a picture, I'd love to see your creations!
