Description
The sky at night from my window at Saint-Rémy. I could not sleep so I painted it instead. I don't know if it is the sky or my mind. Both, probably.

Complete night sky painting
I have been in this room for weeks. The painting is finished. The sky outside looks exactly like it. I don't know if that means I got it right or if I am simply losing my mind again. Possibly the same thing.

Complete night sky painting
Showed it to the doctor. He said nothing for a long time. I think that means it worked.
The stars are not points of light. They are alive and spinning and I don't think anyone else sees this but I am going to paint it as fact anyway.
Added the cypress today. It goes all the way up. Theo will ask why. I will not have a good answer except that it had to.
The window faces east. I have been watching the sky since 4am. There is a village below and I keep painting it smaller than it is because the sky deserves more room.
