• New Van Gogh and Not a Van Gogh - I mentioned this Vincent van Gogh painting last year when experts were unsure about the authenticity of the work. It turns out that it isn't a Van Gogh painting, nor is it a forgery.
• Fake Vincent van Gogh in Australia? - The National Gallery in Melbourne, Australia may have itself an expensive fake Vincent van Gogh portrait. British experts on the Dutch master have come up with a list of inconsistencies, which point toward the work being a forgery.
• Vincent van Gogh Quotes - Whenever I read a book I always underline (if I own the book) or write down (if I borrowed the book) quotations that interest me. They're always great for inspiration when things get tough in the studio.

• Sotheby's Auction Panic and Christie's Auction Records - After seeing the Sotheby's auction fizzle out last week, I thought record prices might have become a rare event. Of the 76 works on sale, 20 failed to find buyers, including this wheat field painting (pictured) by Vincent van Gogh.
• My Favorite Artists - It's hard to narrow it down to just a set list of artists as I have been influenced by so many artists over the years. I also fall in and out of love with particular artists, but a certain few always remain close to me.
• Rich Artists = Bad Art? - Vincent struggled for his art, so did Modigliani, but artists like Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol, and more recently Damien Hirst could afford to pay an army of assistants to work for them.
• Photoshop Art Fakes - So there's a lot that are quite obviously changed, but there are others that are more subtle. The work above is obviously Van Gogh's Cafe Terrace at Night with a Starbuck's coffee sign out the front.
• Relative of Vincent van Gogh Killed - I've heard of people being verbally abused or even imprisoned for their art, but being killed for your art is a little extreme. Theo van Gogh (no, not Vincent's brother) caused outrage in the Dutch Muslim community when he made a controversial 11 minute film about a Muslim woman that was abused in an arranged marriage.
• Art Auction Excitement - A $25 million Modigliani and $15 million canvasses by Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh and Andy Warhol will also hit the block during the two-week auctions in New York, which start on Wednesday.
