oh i forgot to state, it didn't affect me. except I feel like touching those hands, and wonders about the eye thing

Well I just hope I don't die or something a year from now lol it did nothing to me, and I already had seen it before but didn't knew the story behind it, the mind is a powerful thing and if you believe in what you read it may happen, since I'm not supersticious maybe that's the reason why it doesn't have effect on me BUT THINK about it.. if this had any truth in it instead of weapons soldiers would just bring to war a copy of these and throw it at the enemy

I've seen this painting in another thread before. The very first time I saw it I hated it so much I wanted to break the monitor, and I just felt depressed and scared looking at it. Now that it was brought to my attention again, I was at first scared again because of the memories, but now that I look at it, it's almost soothing.

The power of the bizzare in paintings is by far the most interesting and fun aspect to use.

..I kinda like it.. its not that creepy.. at all really..

That girl is a doll.. for certain, the eyes, plus if you look near her elbow, there is a hinge.

And that head isn't really that huge. For one; in almost every person, the eyes are in the middle (or close middle) of the head, middle from bottom to top of the head. The fact that his head is shaved makes his forehead (and entire head) seem bigger. Look at a person with a similar haircut, you'll notice that their head probably looks a bit big. Also, when kids are younger, sometimes there bodies aren't entirely portioned. For instance, when I was younger, I had huge ears (for my size), but as I grew up, I 'grew into them'.

Plus, if all that doesn't convince you that his head isn't really that big, I believe the artist said it was about the subcious, or something of the kind, and most artists who do something in that area tend to over exaggerate something.

I felt nothing. It's just a painting , a litte creepy maybe . I am useing it as a background on my comp now though

When coincidental deaths surround a particular 'object', the spectre of the object is increased. In fact there is nothing particularly peculiar about either the name of the painting or the painting itself. After going to the artists website and viewing the rest of his work, it is obvious to me that major influences in his artistic expression included Salvador Dali and MC Escher. While his work is quite impressive it is by no means 'original' as the surrealistic aspects of all of his paintings predate him a good bit.

All that being said to express the thought that A) He is a very good artist and Not really extrordinary.

Have seen before its just a weird old painting does not scare me

I feel nothing but an extreme longing to have that painting. I would like to investigate that more, but im not sure what that guy was doing when he painted that.

I showed it to my sister and she felt sick too and I didn't even told her what was the story behind it only after she watched it.. I wonder why it does this for some ppl, maybe the colors used? at least that's what my sister thought.

The picture made me feel uneasy and light-headed.....and kinda pissed off.

I looked at it yesterday again, and the more I looked at it, the more I loved it. I loved it so much that I started looking at other paintings by this artist, which I am proud to say are just as eerie.

spooky..

Creepy painting, I wouldn't want it. It does make me feel funky though, I think it is something about the proportions of the images and the lighting sort of tricks you into seeing something wierd.

I feel weird but maybe it's because i was anticipating something to happen????
Maybe, but i still feel funny

that wasn't very scary. The girl looks like a doll.

I have a headache now. Weird.

it's an eerie painting i think, but mainly because of as was said before the power of suggestion. It kinda gives you a knotty feeling in your tummy though

What wrong with it ?

and what is exactly freaky about it ... hmmm =/

Good painting tho

I keep looking at this picture, but it does not bother me ?

Gah! Stomach ache!

Edit: Gah! And headache!

i'm so scared. really though. it didn't do much for me.

That boy looks like a mans face with a kids body.
It's not scary at all.

You know, that painting looks just like Barney. I love Barney so much! Especially his music.

Barney is a Dinosaur
From our imagination...

omg I love that sooooo much!!!!!

man you mare crazy

I love this work. I think it does exactly what art must in order to be successful...and that is illicit an emotional response. It's a great piece.

I saw it nearly a year ago when I first joined this site. The painting is freaky without the caption, I mean, one of the boys' arms is thicker than the other...FREAKY!! And the girl-doll has no eyes, how will she see the awful freakiness of the boys arms and run!!!

i dont feel anything. jst that the girl reminds me of chuckie.

I felt not a thing, but i did find the picture amusing.

That painting IS hidious! I've never seen anything like it, and I like scary stuff.

felt dizzy the first time i looked at it, but went back and --nothing--.

Good Job! You can overreact

Made me feel a bit dizzy and lightheaded too. Maybe it's the colour scheme or technique or something?

I looked at the picture, looked at the caption. The only thing that happened to me was that I got a bad headache, and I had to go to the bathroom right away.

Urp, I just got a bit dizzy and my head hurts a tad now... *topples over*

im new here so dont no how old this thresd is all it is now is a blue hamster with tits is this right??????

A tip: Links from UM's photo gallery that are usually 1-2 months or more old are very outdated, and will take you to some other pic But don't worry, the painting is nothing to lose sleep over

lol ok thanks think i found it though about 3 pics on

Yes, the changing positions of the pictures in the image gallery is going to cause a problem, so I'm going to close this thread, its pretty much served its purpose.
