    Great choice sarat!:jiggy:

    I'm lurking for the moment. I have to see how the technique goes at this scale. Starry Night was my favorite painting as a child. I miss the east, where I could get on a bus to see Starry Night most any time. It is at the New York City MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). If I recall, Van Gogh did olive trees too.

    I am thinking of using his techniques on the local landscape. I found a website that also has his drawings (including the study for Starry Night). https://www.vangoghgallery.com/catalog/catalog.html

    So I will study and sketch and get back...    ​

    Have you guys watched the old Kirk Douglas movie about Van Gogh's life? It's called "Lust for Life". You can watch it on YouTube. I thought it was really good.
    Van Gogh Movie

    **Note** I just started watching it and it looks like they've got kind of a wonky version of it on there now. They've started charging $2.99 to rent it. Sorry. It was free and full screen when I watched it a long time ago.
