Slavomir Mrozek (1930-2013). @. Daniel Mroz (1917-19930 

I  love Mroz's artwork.  He illustrated books for both the above authors and more besides.  As I might be absent for a awhile due to heart issues, i thought i'd leave a bunch of his masterpieces for your edification, lol...  Mrozek is the top photo.  i have a post planned for his "The Elephant", but who knows if it will transpire...

  1. Heart issues--ouch! I hope they're taking good care of you.

    I love Mroz, though I mostly know him from Stanislaw Lem. I did backstage for Mrozek's Tango as an undergraduate. I remember it as pretty fun, & pointed, too.

    Good luck & keep well! I hope your return is soon.

  4. Aw, Mudpuddle! I hope everything is okay and you're back in fine form soon. I'll be sending prayers your way!

    Mrozek reminds me a little of Salvadore Dali. However, what do I know of painting? Take care!
