Welcome to Yerkaland- Jacek Yerka is an amazing Polish Surrealist.

Love it. Thanks for sharing a new artist to my eyes

I'm so pleased you enjoyed it, thanks!

Very fine technique and grand imagination.
It looks like he is working in the mischtechnik.
It involves building up layers of egg tempra and applying luminous glazes of oil paint.
I'd like to take that reptilian VW for a spin.

Thanks for this.. now I have something new (to me) to research.

Yes, that car looks like it would be great fun to take for a test run (so long as you didn't have to run very fast!)

Great post zosimov they are fantastic pictures and thank you so much for sharing them! I agree with Trueman I want that bed it does look so inviting.

I like the fishing boat as well with the large sea creature underneath, that would be a good image just on its own without the freaky looking building. I may have to look at purchasing a couple of these in the near future.

Started and flagged! Again thanks for taking the time to post.



All the best

Thanks Scaley

I have to say, it was well worth the time it took to post, especially considering all the members who enjoyed Yerka's beautiful work!

I think the giant fish may be my favorite piece. But I do like them all

Let us know if you buy one!

He also has a book with Harlan Ellison-Great stuff.
