Features“I saw 50 or 60 painters painting, and someone told me: ‘Oh it’s you! I’ve been painting you for six months.’ Probably a lot of them knew my face better than I,” jokes Robert Gulaczyk, who plays Vincent van Gogh in a new animation – the world’s first fully painted feature film. More than 100 artists from all over the world created the 65,000 paintings that make up Loving Vincent. “It was meant to be a seven-minute short film that transformed into a feature film,” she says. “I couldn’t paint it by myself any longer because that would have taken me 80 years.”This story first appeared in the BBC
