While he was in Arles, Van Gogh made this painting of his bedroom in the Yellow House. He prepared the room himself with simple furniture and with his own work on the wall. Vincent told his brother Theo in a letter that he had deliberately ‘flattened’ the interior and left out the shadows so that his picture would resemble a Japanese print. Van Gogh was very pleased with the painting: ‘When I saw my canvases again after my illness, what seemed to me the best was the bedroom.’ I've always loved Vincent's paintings - sometimes clumsy draftsmanship that never detracted from the passionate emotional way he put paint on the canvas. His paintings resonate with my own style. This painting is obviously not like the original. I took a nude figure and placed Van Gogh's head on it. I think he would have liked it!
