Conclusions To be a genius you need 1.To introduce the innovations, to be in front of you time (even if you aren’t understood by contemporaries) 2.To be precise in detail, to possess unique technique of drawing. 3.To have rich even grand fantasy and power of imagination (some images in the canvases may be far from reality) 4.There should be some intrigue and even mystery in each work, something that escapes from the viewer. 5.Genius is a gifted person from nature, but without hard work and sacrificing your time and even private life you ‘ll never achieve anything.
