I have always had an admiration for Van Gogh and his fabulous work...from his Self potraits to his Sunflower collection....
But I only realised the impact of his paintings when I saw his original 'Irises' at the Getty Centre in LA...the use of colour and the energetic strokes add such depth to the painting..it is as if you are actually in a field of irises....digital photos or prints simply donot do justice to his work...the layers of thick paint giving a 3D effect is just missing...
If you guys do get a chance to view any of his originals..please dont miss out on the opportunity!!

My Salute to Dan Brown
I must say this..I have never ever read anything earlier which had so much research put in it...especially a Fiction..
Dan Brown is definietly one of the greatest thinkers today...
'Angels and Demons' and 'DaVinci Code' definitely are masterpeices in their own repect..many people I met prefer Angels and Demons to DaVinci...I agree that the former is more thrilling ..more like a Bollywood movie...but I think DaVinci definetly has a greater impact..it deals with one of the most important aspects of history and one of the world's most enchanting mysteries: The Holy Grail.
I recently finished 'Deception Point'..a must read!!!..totally different theme..but a captivating adventure till the end..
Happy Reading!!!
