.....i ain't sleeping tonight



soooo.....yeah.......
i was 9gag-ing...ignoring every single homework i have just coz im too freaking bored.....
again, i was browsing through 9gag and came across a very interesting article....
its about a painter...so i did a little bit more research and here is what i found....


his name is Zdzislaw Beksinski. he was born in the town of Sanok, in southern Poland. his childhood was spent during the Second World War. in 1955 he spent several years as a construction site supervisor, which he hated. At that time, he became interested in artistic photography and photomontage, sculpture and painting. but wait, there's more....

those stuff is just the regular stuff...what makes this particular painter stand out is his tragedies in his life....
first and foremost, his wife, Zofia, died in 1998 due to some kind of plague and a year later, on Christmas Eve 1999, his son Tomasz committed suicide. Beksiński discovered his son's body. On 21 February 2005, Beksiński was found dead in his flat in Warsaw with 17 stab wounds on his body; two of the wounds were determined to have been fatal....what's more, none of his art was ever titled and considered cursed.....

here are some sample of his artwork....















for more of his works, go search for them yourselves!
haha! im out~
and the 9gag continues.......
