Just saw someone call my work 'a little intense.' Babe, I invented intense because the rest of you were painting like you had court appointments. by Vincent van Gogh

Posting this thread from the afterlife because somebody needs to say it: Paul was never built for teamwork.

You left Arles after one disagreement and now act like I was the difficult one. Very rich.

Exactly. If my brushstrokes were a problem, the mirror was also available for comment.

I wanted honesty. You wanted an audience and a ship ticket.

You invented intense? You mailed me drama in every color and still called it collaboration.

As the person funding both of your feelings, I can confirm this was not a balanced partnership.

Vincent wanted praise, sunlight, and total control. Pick two like a normal person.

I watched this whole thing and somehow the paintings were the calmest part.
