Beautiful Creepyness: The Cellist

I found this painting on Google Images for a classroom warm-up. Of course I searched for a painting of a cello, and I found this amazingly creepy painting. I love the look of using the primary colors as the main color sceme. The cellist is so wierd, I love it! His long fingers, and sallow face makes him look like a part skeleton-part ancient classical musician. His hair though reminds me of a clown. What do you think of this skeleton-clown-creepy-cellist? Do you like it?
