My Van Gogh Adventure!

During the summer holidays, I went to Holland to visit my family, and when I was there I went to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. I was really excited as I wanted to see Sunflowers, a really famous painting.
Vincent van Gogh was one of the greatest artists of all time. He was Dutch, and although he only sold one painting when he was alive, he painted over 2000 pictures in 10 years. I saw hundreds of his paintings in the museum. Most people remember him for cutting off his own ear!
Some of my favourite paintings were Almond Blossom, Haymaking, The Potato Eaters and, of course, The Sunflowers.
When I got back, I painted my own version of Sunflowers – I wish it was worth as much money as the original, and I would really like to see the Mona Lisa next!
