The Starry Night, A Portrait of Vincent van Gogh Hyper-Realism

My painting titled The Starry Night, A Portrait of Vincent van Gogh was first exhibited in the Knoxville McGhee Tyson Airport Exhibition in the spring of 2015. The painting was finished shortly before entering the exhibition and I never got the time to enjoy my labor on this piece because a couple of days before the opening the piece was sold. It's both a good feeling when someone is willing to purchase your work, but at the same time there is mixed feeling letting it go so soon. Regardless today it's in the hands of a collector that was very happy to have it and that's what really counts.
