Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh is known the world over for his vivid portraits and landscapes. Even though he was considered as one of history’s greatest painters, van Gogh didn’t become wealthy from his craft reportedly only selling one painting, The Red Vineyard, during his life.
His story has been made into films and recently his mental issues fitted in perfectly in an episode of Doctor Who. Artcyclopedia now brings van Gogh’s works to the fore through the use of tilt-shift photography, albeit simulating the miniature effects in Photoshop. Have a look at some of their photo manipulations after the jump.

wow those actually work very well! wonder how well other artists would turn out…
It’s an OK effect, but I far prefer Gotham Starry Night.
Oh, I tried the faux tilt-shift method with paintings by George Seurat and Paul Signac. Alas my efforts were rubbish. Let us know if you make any.
i am quite interested in giving this a go. will see how the day pans out, and if i manage to get anything worth looking at :P
Wonderful. Depending on your success, maybe you can write a little article for us?
