From the Artist: "I was looking through my works, to prove to myself that although I say I am not enamored by Van Gogh's works, I seem to emulate some of the styles he is known for.
From the Painting Guide: In this painting, what reminds me most of Van Gogh is the way you've rendered the table, it looks like woodgrain with a sense of fire in it. One section that doesn't work for me in terms of composition is the top right corner where there's 'nothing' – my eye gets drawn right into the background and then tends to stick there. Otherwise the placement of the elements has a definite flow to them, drawing your eye into each and from one to the other.
