How do you paint Van Gogh style?

Hi everybody, time for another question of arts. I was just wondering how you can paint Van Gogh style in a way. It seems really hard to accomplish one painting with the Van Gogh style because I realized that when Van Gogh painted "Starry Night", "Sunflowers", and "Red Vineyard, there were many lines on his painting, how does he does it and please don't say anything like a fairy painted for him or he was a magical wizard. Please and thanks a million for the people that answered properly.

Van Gogh wanted to show his expressions about painting so he drew paintings with simple lines and made a great masterpiece even though many people disliked his paintings. This is how you can paint the Van Gogh way:

1. You will need some oil pastels and a rectangular, big sized paper. You will need some temper paint also to make it look like Van Gogh's style of painting.

2. Dip the selected color you want and smoothly, start froming lines on the paper until you get the color onto the paper, don't press hard on the paper or it will leave trails of broken pieces of that color on the paper.

3. Do it over and over until you fill the whole paper or part of it. You can also select another pastel to paint with for another part of the paper.

4. After you are done, you can showcase it if you want, and it's time to clean up/pick up after yourself.
