“I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.” – Vincent Van Gogh
If one’s last (thought of) contribution to Art, Humanity and Posterity is thus:
Does it matter if one has “lost” his mind?
If he can write such words about the above painting, has he lost his mind?
“They are vast stretches of wheat under troubled skies, and I did not have to go out of my way very much in order to try to express sadness and extreme loneliness…. I’m fairly sure that these canvases will tell you what I cannot say in words, that is, how healthy and invigorating I find the countryside.
Love
PS: I am interested in your thoughts: Do you believe Van Gogh had lost his mind?

I love it, if he has!
I really, really dig his paintings!

He thought he had lost his mind – but maybe he had merely ‘found’ it 😀
