For the past couple days, I have have been studying about Vincent Van Gogh. I read a couple articles about him, researched him online and more. But i think Van Gogh was a really interesting person. I found his life story interesting as well. The part that i found most interesting, was the way he died. Vincent Van Gogh commited suicide and killed himself by walking into a wheat field and shot himself in the chest. I found this really shocking and sad because Van Gogh was a great person. He had a great passion for art, such as .. painting, drawing etc. He admired it and made almost a total of 2,000 drawings and paintings. This reminds me of the time i was reading a newspaper article and a man shot himself with a gun because somebody was making fun of him and he didn't want to be pressured or hurt anymore , so he killed himself. I think if Van Gogh got to live till this day he would have been a millionaire. Van Gogh grew a poor and sadly he didn't get to live the rest of his life rich. Vincent Van Gogh, is a person I will never forget. His life story was really sad and shocking for me. I think Vincent Van Gogh is a hero.

I agree with you that Vincet Van Gogh commiting suicide was shocking because he seemed like such a great person. I can't believe that someone like him would do such a thing. I also agree that Van Gogh had a passion for art because all of his paintings are full of colour. All of his paintings are mind-blowing.

It was great how you related to Vincent Van Gogh. The newspaper article was very simalar to Vincent's life. The piece of writing was very detailed. I agree that Van Gogh's death was shocking and unexpected. Van Gogh did have lots of passion for his art and his drawings and paintings were special.

Good blog Ryan! I think that the way you talked about Van Gogh was simply amazing because you have a lot of detail in your blog. Clearly you put a lot of effort into this blog and I think if I were to mark this I would give it an A
ReplyDeleteTHAT WAS A VERY HEART FELT EMOTIONAL STORY!It was a great story.Usually when we talk to you we can't keep a straight face because your usually being funny or fooling around. When you wrote this story you had to keep a straight face, so it was very surprising. I really liked how it was all what you think. It was very well-done, great job! :D
