Vincent van Gogh by hou2use

Unique durable portrait of Vincent van Gogh handmade from paint remnants and waste wood Vincent Willem van Gogh (Zundert, 30 March 1853 - Auvers-sur-Oise, 29 July 1890) was a Dutch painter. His work falls under Post-Impressionism, an art movement that succeeded nineteenth-century Impressionism. Van Gogh's influence on expressionism, fauvism and early abstraction was enormous and can be seen in many other aspects of twentieth-century art. The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is dedicated to the work of Van Gogh and his contemporaries. The Kröller-Müller Museum houses the second largest Van Gogh collection in the world. Van Gogh is considered one of the greatest painters of the 19th century. However, this recognition came late: although he already had some fame within select art circles in the last years of his life, his work was not noticed by the general public until after his death, after which Van Gogh and his work became world-famous.

This artwork is offered by hou2use

Unique, affordable and personalized art, portraits and gifts on preferably old, used or discarded wood.

We are Gerhard van Dijkhuizen and Colet Scheper. Together we came up with the concept hou2use. Based on a photo we invent, design and create unique, personal and affordable art on wood. We strongly believe in sustainability and therefore we prefer to make portraits of people or (domestic) animals on used or discarded wood.

We love most art on commission. We then conceive and create, together with you and especially for you, a custom-made work of art or portrait on wood.

Thanks to our special collaboration with Werk aan de Muur, you can also reproduce our unique work in virtually any format and on virtually any material!
