Perspective - If its good enough for Vincent...
Hello

I just returned from a week in Amsterdam, where among the more obvious attractions (!), I visited the Van Gogh Museum.

As Perspective is the perennial bugbear for many on this forum, it struck me we could now invoke the "Van Gogh" defence (he didnt bother himself with such trivial considerations, preferring to concentrate on colour and mood)when Steve points out our wonky attempts in the Friday Challenges !!

I mean, checkout his masterpice, "Bedroom at Arles", and note, especially the paintings on the wall !!

Yes, indeed. On the other hand, the guy was certifiably mad.

I'd say "Here, here" to Van Gogh's Perspective but fear it may fall upon at least one deaf here.

\I'll get me coat shall I?
