Urban exploring: What can Van Gogh do for you?

Next time you're in a bookshop or pass a library go to the art section. Find one of these nice big coffee table books and check out Vincent Van Gogh's paintings made in Asnières. Skip the famous starry night and all that for now. If you like any of the paintings you might try to get hold of a postcard with that image on it.
Next time you pass any body of water, a fountain, lake or even a puddle would do; tell me what do you see?
If you trust me do it. If you don't do it with the painter of your choice but don't focus on the most famous work.
