i really like these,
they have a strange calmness to them....
thanks for posting, runner! what time are they from?

 

[shambles]

Schiele; Miro; Klee; sometimes Gauguin. I have to say I don't like the fact that a lot of art has been cheapened by overexposure. Monet's and Van Gogh's work seem so cliche to me now - which is a terrible injustice to these and many other artists.

you are welcome anna
maybe most of them are from around 2000-03.
it was 2002 when he finished the painting on the ceiling, in his late seventies.

I'm a sucker when it comes to modern art. I love Van Gogh

 

[cheiby11]

Definitely Egon Schiele
