No. Troubled by fits of insanity, frustrated by his inability to sell a single painting, dependent on his loving brother's largesse, struggling to realize the FEELING of his subjects, no, not happy.

He was absolutely like "man I'm doing it. I cant do anything else. I'm doing this. And it's work. And I'm working. Fuck it."

This is an interesting and complex question. In the modern sense of the word, I’d probably say no, fundamentally, Vincent was not happy. But when I think about him, did I see him during his life in periods—even if fleeting—of deep fulfillment and contentment? Yes.

He was painting Tree Roots that morning just a couple minutes walk away from the inn.

the cheesy smiling sense, absolutely not

but artists rarely are, and in any case with his psychological makeup any other course of action/outcome would have been much worse
