I love them all. i have no idea if they are “good” or original in thought or expression but I really like them. They seem to me to be pictures of dreams and/or nightmares.
awsome.
pure brilliance.
the one with the swans in the maze…….
Absolutely fantastic! Superb skill & surrealness.. love it
The one with the fish and the building on top of him and the gate in his mouth, that is a sad pic for sure. The fish is held captive and can’t elieve he got caught like that while taking a nap. SAD you should give him an escape route. an opening somewhere. Atleast the swans got move about a bit.
I like them, I noticed the use of clocks in several. They also have lots of water and things reaching towards the heaven. I agree with Audrie, nightmares and dreams.
the swans in the maze are my favorite too.
I love them all but 15, 18, and 19 are my favorites. (hold your mouse over to see the number) There are several surreal landscapes that I would like to live in, if not at least visit. Great stuff!
There’s a story being told, here.
In my mind, there’s some kind of fondness of “old ways”, with many references to an agrarian idil. While there also seems to be question mark over industry and motorcars specifically.
When I look at these paintings, I see M. C. Escher, Derek Riggs (of Iron Maiden artwork fame) and Dali, too — though I have no knowledge of the history here.
Wonderful artwork…
Genius artwork. Congratulations to mr. Jacek Yerka. I think I’ll buy Mind Fields. I’d love to attend to one of his expositions and maybe even buy a painting or two.
Love number 12! The “Big Bang Theroy”…from the emptiness, coldness of the cosmos to the beauty and peace of a planet of life.
8, 14, 18, 26, 31. the best, if you ask me.
Wonderful artwork. My favorite is the desert room with water. Are the footprints going out or in? Is this an oasis or a trap? i the water held back or is it waiting for someone to enter……?
whoa, number 4 is awesome. ive actually thought about that before
This is some of the most stirring, evocative, and stimulating ART that I’ve ever seen in my life. JACEK YERKA is a genious Not-Of-This-Earth. WOW!
SO SOPHISTICATED…. intricate and profound!!! NO doubt in every picture there is a specific idea or so to say intention to convey bread-and-butter issue… I’VE GOT INTO A DAZE… REALLY … and suppose you too
How can I buy one???
molto bello
Absolutely incredible.
These are some really awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing!
WOW! some of them seem wacky at first, but then I realize it would be pretty dang cool if it really existed!
AWESOME!!! kinda ghibli-esque
I think these painings are about humans trying to concour nature, that do you think?
I love them all. Thank you so much. That are awesome paintings. Really good.
I had to go back and view them all again,
I had missed so much the first time.
I am drawn to the ones with the waves the most.
Outstanding
U are a great artist! For sure! Great artists know the value of the subconscious to the art. Just as Dali did know. True art is never simply naturalistic or banal if you ‘d like to put it that way. Realism and naturalism is merely journalism and journalism is very seldom, if ever, art! A true artistic mind always reveals at least a part of our dreams and unknown parts of ourselves! At least thats my opinion. Cheers!

Wow! Similar to Magritte, Dali or Escher in places. The cities and towns are so charming, although made slightly eeire due to there being not a single human being an any of the pictures. Just evidence of human life.
Absolutely incredible. Thank you.
They’re not like Dali, twit.
Wow! Amazing!
Thanks for bringing this guy to our attention. I’m now a massive fan.
I wonder how many other great artists there are out there that we don’t know about.
Cheers,
James
Great Painting! Thanks for sharing. I really liked the 9th one down
The swans in the maze are my favourate too
These paintings make me want to write a million crazy stories all based off of the amazing imagination of the artist.
There seems to be a hint of M.C. Escher in a lot of these. Perspective wise i suppose.
This guy is amazing, and I believe is now my favorite artist. Thank you!
More than odd, more than weird, a little bit of insanity in some,…………apart from the swans in the maze, which is a bit more conventional. I actually liked that one. I personally wouldn’t buy anything.
Not my cup of tea at all……. but it takes all kinds !!!!
Had never heard of the artist before I joined StumpleUpon - what a find! Being a fan of Escher and Dali, noted similarities - some will agree, some will disagree, doesn’t really matter - loved them all anyway! How fabulous to be so talented and creative …
very cool! I love the combination of creatures and every day items, turns out awesome images!
Wow it is good…:))
Amazing work, how I would love to have an imagination like that of Jacek’s!
Yeah man, this guy is pretty intense.
Although he has an extremely good imagination, I believe these pictures would be more “successful” if they were to have been drawn, however the talent that it takes to be able to paint such marvelous and original ideas, is one which should not be reckoned with so Good job Mr. painter! =)
These are really creative! I love #’s 4, 6, 9, 10, 15, 16, and 25. The ones that look like shells are my favorites. A lot of them seem to be making environmental statements.
absolutely awe-inspiring
This art is pure genius each image has a
story being told in which holds many wonders
into who knows what
more than a few of these could be a pink floyd album cover
SWEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
heyy! i love all of these paintings! (: they seem to be dreams or nightmares…….. but i really thin that is sooooo cool ok welll i love them
very surreal. similar to that of rene magritte and vladmir kush.
I’d like to purchase one when I have enough funds
It seems his fears are of housing, each painting seems to have a house going off of a waterfall or up in the air, he must have moved alot. hahahahha..
good technique
