The Impressionists and Post-impressionists of his time influenced him to a great extent once he moved to Paris. The bright innovative palette dominated deeply over Gogh's earlier gloomy color palette. During his short art-career Van Gogh had sold only one painting. His most excellent paintings were created in no more than 3 years in a method that graduated more and more emotional in brushstroke, in powerful colors, in surface tension, and in the movement and vibration of structure and contour. His masterpieces have a variety of uniqueness that have been imitated by many artists but achieved by no one of them.It is never too early to introduce kids to art through books and museum visits, but parents often fear that kids will be bored.

His Paintings
The Potato Eaters
1885, Oil on canvas, 82 cm × 114 cm, Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam
Van Gogh said he wanted to depict peasants as they really were. He on purpose chose crude and ugly models, thinking that they would be natural in his finished work. Writing to his sister Willemina, Van Gogh considered The Potato Eaters his most successful painting: "You see, I really have wanted to make it so that people get the idea that these folk, who are eating their potatoes by the light of their little lamp, have tilled the earth themselves with these hands they are putting in the dish, and so it speaks of manual labor and — that they have thus honestly earned their food. I wanted it to give the idea of a wholly different way of life from ours — civilized people. So I certainly don’t want everyone just to admire it or approve of it without knowing why."
