Bizarre Painters & Their Wondrous Ways

Most artists have a quirky way to teleport their vision to their viewers. Some perplex us, while some leave us astonished for centuries. Be that as it may, artists and their processes have amused people since time eternal. Here are a few eccentrically bizarre artists famous for using weird tools and tactics to create a splash in the art world.

The Surrealist Salvador Dali baffled people with his artistic ponderings, wild statements, and off-the-wall personality till the day he took his last breath. His weird paintings serve as a testament to his eccentric artistry. Dali was riveted by the realm that connected unconsciousness and reality. He took extreme measures to draw “hand-painted dream photographs on his canvas. His preoccupation with hallucinatory dreamscapes gave way to many classic pieces. Evident in dripping pocket watches, bleak expansive landscapes, erotic yet gnarled nudes, liquefying bodies supported by precariously placed crutches, and toppling scrawny elephants, Such bizarre meanderings crowned him as one of the weirdos of the artistic sphere.
Francis Bacon, an early riser, alcohol and social savant justified the phrase ‘creature of habit’ by never missing a beat off of his schedule.A day lark, starting his mornings by by quirky paintings like there was no tomorrow and indulging in dining, drinking, and fraternizing rituals a bit into the witching hours. He once quoted that hangovers brought out the best artistic sides of him, as it brought him clarity. Though a man of pleasure, Bacon had his fair share of struggles with insomnia that made him rely on sleeping pills and dabbling with cookbooks in hopes of enchanting sleep.
Millie Brown has a way of her own that would strike most as gut-wrenchingly grotesque, but her final product might startle your outlook puking. A master of regurgitation, Brown gobbles colored milk leading to a colorful vomit used for her marvelous pieces on white canvas. Her weird artworks have fetched her thousands of dollars, evidenced by her Nexus Vomitus which sold for $2,400.
A Group of Artists in the Ukraine dive into the water of the Black Sea to compose their paintings. With scuba gear, they can stay underwater for up to 40 minutes. During that time, they apply paint to canvases under challenging conditions. Painting under the sea is virtually the same as drawing above it. But the divers’ canvases are covered with a waterproof adhesive coating before they take the plunge.
