Beksinski

I've been trying to get back to drawing again. It was my first artistic love, but it has always been chalenging and anxiety provoking for me, and I tend to stray from it. For inspiration, I've been looking at an artist who has long been a favorite of mine, although his style is about as far off from my usual aesthetic as can be. Zdzislaw Beksínski, a Polish artist, was a name introduced to me by my roommates a few years ago. When I first saw his work, I wondered where it had been hiding my whole life. I considered the option that I had just missed his work, that it had just fallen into a blind spot because it seemed sure to me that if someone was producing work of this quality that it must be well known. Since I have recognized his images in a number of places and I'm always glad to see such a talented artist's work finding exposure. See more of the artist's work on his website.
