I found a good size pic of this painting for my profile page (else where).... but odd.. it keeps stalling on just that upload..
Okay, now I'm a little creeped. The OP's first link kept stalling on me, and didn't work until the third try.

Very strange painting and I did feel something odd- this is probably because I am a collector and this painting is awful self portrait of and by an
very wounded artist. I for one hope that the artist was able to express and "release" these memories for him/herself, so they can go on to some of
the better things in life.
I could break it down- but I will not. The artist has suffered enough and deserves no further rejection, affirmation or critic of his.her work
regarding this piece. It was and/or is time to move on and I hope he/she did in fact do that.
However- the current owner of this piece is more than welcome to bring it to my house for a night- which I am willing to spend and pay homage and
respect to the artist who suffered. Any condition may apply but are limited to a guard at the door to ensure theft is not possible.
In the morning I will be happy to give notes which may include nothing at all, but do not necessarily prove that the current owner is attempting to
increase the value og their purchase by placing a "haunting curse" on it. Any outside attempt at CGI will be duly noted and reported here.
It is not like this has not happened before....numerous times, in fact... I am just saying not implying and humbling offering my services in the event
the OP is really interested.
Yes, I will go this far to help my fellow ATSers from being fooled or affirm that this is a real event.
PS_ always remember that Diane Brooks of Sotheby's went to jail for numerous things and Sotheby's got busted for smuggling great art fakes for an
upcoming auction. 60 minutes carried the expose. Look it up for yourselves I am tired!
It is an intriguing piece that I wish to acknowledge the OP for bringing it to our attention. If I am taken up on my offer- I will report everything
truthfully as it happenes. I will do that.
What is anyone else willing to do?

Come on people, there is nothing evil or supernatural about this painting...
Bill Stoneham painted it as a reflection of his childhood (from what I recall.) The picture is creepy, and couple that with a good Ebay ad, some
publicity and you've got a ghost story.
Those problems your having with your upload or interent connection while viewing this painting are just coincodence.
