29 Sep Starry, starry night…
“Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist’s loving hand”
Excerpt from the song ‘Vincent’ by Don McLean
For this shoot, we drew our inspiration from the painting by Vincent van Gogh and we tried to paint our own version of his Starry Night in hues of blue, violet, yellow and gold. We wanted to create the same swirling momentum by making use of light and reflection and wanted to bring across the same sense of timelessness that one gets when looking at his artwork.
