In August of 1888 Vincent Van Gogh began a series of paintings with Sunflowers.
Vincent Van Gogh (1853 - 1890) was a Dutch post-Impressionist Master whose innovative artwork powerfully influenced modern Expressionism, Fauvism, and early abstraction. Astoundingly prolific, Van Gogh produced all of his work during a 10-year period, at one point, creating 150 paintings and drawings within one year. Painting outdoors, Van Gogh uniquely captured the nighttime nuances of light and shadow, and was also renowned for his paintings of sunflowers and irises. Tormented by mental illness for most of his life, Van Gogh created many of his masterpieces while he was institutionalized. Although Van Gogh only sold one painting during his lifetime, he is now regarded as one of the most profoundly influential artists of the 19th century.http://www.art.com/asp/sp-asp/_/pd--10020646/Vase_of_Flowers_c1887.htm

Vincent did not tell us.
He made seven Sunflower paintings. He did not record the time spent on ech one.
He did not tell us, but in the last few months he made one painting every day.
A day or so- oil paint takes a very long time to dry
The question is a little vague. Oil painting as opposed to watercolors or painting in gerneral? Art, whether it's painting, dance, or music, is a form of self expression. His art was a way to show the world as he perceived it.
For about eight years.
Not until long after his death.
8 years as most kids in those days.
Vincent did not tell us.
His first paintings are from 1881, he died in 1890.

No! He died a long time ago, because he killed himself with a gun that he borrowed from a friend. He was a great artist.

Vincent's older brother, who was also named Vincent, died exactly one year before the painter Vincent was born. Theo who was actually Vincent's younger brother died in 1891, roughly six months after his older brother.
he wrote him a very long letter about the importance of color orange in his work and its relation to his obsession of eating them
