Vincent was born in Groot Zundert, Holland on March 30, 1853.
At age sixteen Vincent worked with his uncle in art galleries.
His father died when Vincent was twenty-eight. His mother blamed Vincent for his father’s death because Vincent would always fight with his father and caused him lots of stress.
Right after his father died he started to paint so he could put what he was feeling at the time into his art work.
When Vincent painted he used a variety of colors and materials because he painted many different styles of art.
He suffered from a mental problem and cut part of his ear off and shot himself. He died two days later on July 29,1890.
He inspired many other artists, and he also inspired me to paint.
