Vincent Van Gogh has to be my favourite artist of all time -  "but why?" I hear some of you ask... Well, ever since I did a written project about him at school, it made me question whether he was famous for his work or his life. Personally, I think his work is brilliant and find it such a shame that he couldn't have been so successful when he was alive. After all of the constant effort he put into his paintings, he sadly only managed to sell one painting throughout his lifetime and only really became famous after his death :( I really respect and admire him for constantly trying to succeed despite being drove to suicide along the way... 

''I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.''
