|  VanGogh Hi all, Have decided to take a break from the shop for a couple of days. Took your advise and made my wife something nice; now she has given me so many projects she'd like.......I kind of forgot what sleep was!! Not complaining though! Not being an expert with computers, if I figure out how to post pictures, I would like to show you my first scrollings and get your opinions. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I could find a portrait pattern of "VanGogh"? Another one of my wife's favorites. Have to keep her happy! Thanks. Mikej |

| I found a royalty free picture of Van Gogh, give me a day or three and I'll see if I can make you a pattern.

| Muzzleloader, Thanks for the Van Gogh pattern offer. I received one from Sue (jigsue) which was Van Gogh with bandages! Really nice. Would love to have additional patterns. Thanks. Mikej |

| Maybe just cut out an ear and put it in a box for her.  She may see the humor. I think Van Goghs art could be delivered well as segmentation. Here is a link Amazon.co.uk: Van Gogh Paintings and Drawings (Dover Electronic Clip Art) (Dover Electronic Clip Art) (Dover Electronic Clip Art): Vincent Van Gogh: Books. This may be a great resource. If nothing else you could print out one of his paintings and make a very challenging jigsaw puzzle.
