Painting the Wind

In the Yellow House in the city of Arles, in France, lives a painter. His name is Vincent van Gogh, but his neighbors call him Fou Roux, or Redheaded Fool, because of his red hair and because he paints outside, even when the sun is blistering hot and the wind so strong that it blows the chimneys off the roofs. And his paintings! They are even more crazy than he is--thick and wild, not like any other paintings the townspeople have ever seen.
