Self Portrait with Grey Felt Hat

Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat is Paul's mosaic interpretation of Vincent van Gogh's iconic self-portrait, reimagined through the texture and depth of ceramic and glass tile. Measuring 11" x 14" (15" x 18" framed), the piece translates Van Gogh's expressive brushwork into shimmering tile that catches light and movement from every angle.

Each tile is hand-cut and placed to echo the swirling background, the subtle modeling of the face and the distinctive hat that defines the original portrait. Van Gogh's expressive style lends itself beautifully to mosaic, allowing color, rhythm and texture to come forward in a new way while honoring the spirit of his work.

This piece is part of Paul's ongoing exploration of Van Gogh in mosaic—where timeless painting meets the tactile, luminous world of tile.
