LITTLE KNOW FACTS ABOUT SOME ARTISTS







Leonardo da Vinci loved dressing up as a women.  This is a self-portrait:




Poor Salvador Dali!  He could never figure out where to buy good-quality clocks.




Edvard Munch painted the first person exposed to rap music.




Vincent van Gogh had laser-eye surgery to correct his vision.  Unfortunately the surgeons had not perfected the technique.




Pablo Picasso took a jigsaw puzzle, and painted the what he saw after dumping the pieces from the box to the floor.




And finally, Doctor Griffin, The Invisible Man, loved painting self-portraits.
