My STEEM Crypto Art & Design Challenge Submission

![01_steemgogh.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmS2UnzzXFncfMSTj7dd8Tvcod9u9S2XEBH4pmfbUt4JyB/01_steemgogh.png)

Here is my submission to [another cool contest](https://steemit.com/steem/@sndbox/crypto-art-and-design-challenge-round-7-steem) by @sndbox. Those guys doing really cool things. Check them out. You still have 1-2 days to participate by the way!

### Inspiration

Van Gogh is one of my main daily inspirations and here was a task to do something in a style everyone will understand. I thought that STEEM blockchain is real masterpiece and I guess it was the main @sndbox guys thought as well once they've announced this contest. So this here is ideal combination.

### Sketching

Here was my first sketch. But I've found it is not so similar to Van Gogh portrait so I've done another one. Second try was more sucessfull.

![sketch01.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZceUKiBs8v9nHpSYpfDVBWjxQVpEZGCKCffsTWP3xv6D/sketch01.png)

![sketch02.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmUSsMa3Y1MFemNZW2S6wUGBQJ5VqpqiYevxX5tk1gi6zM/sketch02.png)

I've combined it with the logo to check out what's happening. Understood nothing but still walked further. I am unstoppable. Even while sicking. Hopefully.

![sketch03.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmVYzzwbkfBpofhyvcbbhxyCtRiJgAJPMBJ9ZS7ED9pZ8Q/sketch03.png)

If you are like Mac and have time machine you could revert back in time and see how I've easily colored this genius portrait. Oh, I meant the portrait of Genius.

And then just used my pencil brush added those Gogh stylish strokes. I love them! Uniqness!

![01_steemgogh.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmS2UnzzXFncfMSTj7dd8Tvcod9u9S2XEBH4pmfbUt4JyB/01_steemgogh.png)

I am sure will not win the contest because there are many strong submissions expected. But it was fun to take part. Thanks a lot!

It would be great but I see there is at least one more really great submission now so I am 50% not sure about it :)

Wow, I love it! I love van Gogh's work (really want to make some master studies sometime). I wanted to join this contest as well, but simply couldn't find the time unfortunately. I hope I'll be able to join sometime in the future.

Anyway, I love your take on van Gogh's self portrait!
