Finally watched Loving Vincent this early morning (9am)! I actually woke up at around 4:30am and couldn’t fall back to sleep, too excited? I was able to finish my regular morning routine (i.e. breakfast & newspaper & devotion (sometimes)), then running practice and shower at home before heading out for the cinema. A very productive Sat. morning!
The movie was pretty good, better than expected actually. I’ve always been a fan of Van Gogh since visiting the museum dedicated to him in Amsterdam back in 2003 during a grad trip with my UW friends. I can see a little Van Gogh in me – starting my art journey rather late (after undergrad), simply love painting without seeking recognition, and I can seriously see myself becoming a starving artist just like him if I get serious about doing painting full time (an attractive proposition that often pops up in my mind).
