文森.梵谷是近代偉大象派畫家,雖然在世時寂寂無名,卻深深影響了二十世紀的藝術。他畢生創作了2,100幅畫作,至今仍舉世矚目。《卡米爾.魯林的肖像》是梵谷1888年完成的畫作,現收藏於阿姆斯特丹的梵谷博物館,此書是他們的故事。
卡米爾不知道梵高先生要他幫什麼忙,只管前往他的家。
想不到他只是安靜地坐,思考「把房子刷成什麼顏色」這個問題,最後竟得到一個大大的驚喜!
本故事以小男孩的視角出發,由沿途所見所聞,以至對顏色的感覺和聯想,都能激發孩子的創意和想像力:黃、綠、藍、紅,還會是什麼東西的顏色呢?
彷彿引領著孩子穿越時空,進入梵古的繪畫世界,和他對話,并展示自己對創作的看法,繼而醞釀創作的靈感。
孩子是天生的藝術家,四周的環境和生活的經驗也是創作的泉源。成年人只管讓孩子在創作的天地自由飛翔,就像梵古先生為卡米爾提供了寬闊的想像空間,設定太多限制的話只會窒礙創造力的發展。
本故事為孩子提供了藝術教育的台階,他們可藉此初步了解這位印象派大師的繪畫風格。
