If Rembrant had lived in the same time as Van Gogh, you would see the same thing I think. I find his first paintings so influenced by the art of the time and then, as he was hanging out with so many new artists who were all challenging the ideas of 'traditional art'- he is given social permission by his peers to take paint places it had never gone before. He is a talented product of the art of his times.ArtMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02875414278831616421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24725437.post-22467004012473346172007-12-16T17:32:00.000-08:002007-12-16T17:32:00.000-08:00I love your little self-portrait progression.

It took Rembrandt <I>decades</I> to find that sort of shift. Damn crazy people, making the rest of us look like slowpokes. Maybe if i started eating my paint too....elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04956528995150167171noreply@blogger.com
