Recreating Art project artist statement

The picture that I drew was Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh. Vincent van Gogh was a painter that painted because it was his life, he couldn't imagine a world without pictures or anything like that. Starry Night was a picture that showed a big tree with a small town and stars. Vincent died for his love of art. The painting is still famous today.

I picked this picture to recreate because it was something that I could work with. The painting is a picture that won't be forgotten. Many artist try to take things/techniques from the painting. I also felt like the color in the picture has a meaning that could be used for quite something so I was able to put some of that to my advantage. The painting was something that I was able to use. When I was making the painting I originally thought that using color pencils and paint. I had changed my mind and used just color pencils because of the detail that I had put in. I had drawn everything first to get some detail in. I was looking for more darker colors to go along with the picture but I could only fine light ones, I then just went along with the light ones. This is how I created my re-creation picture.
