I am an art lover, pure and simple. I have always been struck by what I have seen in the paintings of Vincent Van Gogh.
I am also a painter myself, albeit not nearly in the same realm as he but I feel the need to further connect with this man.
One of the things that strikes me the most, is the mystery surrounding Van Gogh’s death. His paintings are all so full of life, colour and movement. Beyond the seemingly tragic nature of his death I have always wondered if there isn’t perhaps another truth to be found. And I am slowly beginning to uncover what that other truth might be. This website is the beginning of my musings on the man, his life and his death.

“For an act of such far-reaching significance and subsequent notoriety, surprisingly little is known about the incident that led to Van Gogh’s death at the age of 37.”
