Vincent Van Gogh Self Portrait with a Straw Hat

- 1 blue 1 green eye

- captures his unique brush strokes

- notable art piece

Study of a Young Woman

- very simple and minimal painting but very intriguing

- "Study of a Young Woman" with its many shifts of color in changing light was recognized in Vermeer's day as one of the most challenging tests of artistic ability

pros:

- accurate representation of the pieces

- free

cons:

- limited scope, abit hard to navigate and rmb which doorway i went into lol

- lack personal touch : abit hard to appreciate the pieces
