Framed if you prefer a framed look, or as is. I understand it is the fashion these days to hang canvases unframed, mostly?

Oh did you ever read the history of Paris Green which Van Gogh used quite frequently?

Even today when I go to the museum and see his work, I see that shocking green color which can not be reproduced by the pigments we have today. We can get something a little bit like it but not that glowing, surreal, shocking green color. It’s beyond fluorescent somehow, hard to describe unless you have seen his paintings up close. Have you seen some of his work in real life?

Anyway, wonderful work, keep it up! 👍👏👏👏
