Gonzo: "Hey, Kermit, are you busy?"

Kermit: "Yes, Gonzo, but I can give you my ear for a minute."

Gonzo: "What would I do with your ear?"

Kermit: "Van Gogh impressions."

Vincent van Gogh : Paul Gauguin in Arles

I assume that Vincent van Gogh lost his ear in a duel with Paul Gauguin. The two lived and worked together in a house in Arles and often clashed.

However, the story with the madness is better for selling the paintings.

"Good artists copy. Great artists steal!" - Pablo Picasso

Paul Gauguin was a force of nature. I can spend entire days reading about his life. And his art... I feed off his art.

And being that I am only a good artist I copy his drawings.

Well, now wait a second.. In my defense I don't copy so much as I "interpret."

There's a difference. 🤣

I based the above drawing on this piece by the master.

Who Are We? What Are We? Why Are We?

I got the title for the drawing from Gauguin's imortal questions:

"Where do we come from? Who are we? Where are we going?" - Paul Gauguin

Love you Paul
