The film’s producers are calling for “high-level oil painters” to help achieve the labour-intensive task by sending samples of their work.
If their work is deemed satisfactory, they will be given a 180-hour training programme in how to paint in the style of Van Gogh, before becoming paid artists on the film, which will be produced over the summer in Gdansk, Poland.
