It's Bacon!!

Francis Bacon that is!
he is a self taught english painter,was highly influenced by Pablo Picasso and Surrealism.

the paintings include images of either friends or lovers, or images of people found in movie stills, reproductions of historic paintings and medical photos.

His people scream in physical and psychic pain, seemingly tortured in bedrooms, bathrooms and cages. His work was always expressionist in style with distorted human and animal forms, potent images of corrupt and disgusting humanity.

* I was going to put these up through a image host...but another gallery I created got ruined by one of the host being shut down effectivly ruining the thread*
