I stumbled across this Italian artist on the web. He is deeply inspired by Baroque painters, especially Caravaggio. His paintings are reminiscent of Baroque paintings but the subjects are often very sexual and violent and many times surreal. His human figures are often in such stretched poses that they look almost distorted.
dat hand tho.... in the last photo, I'm pretty sure that hand is taken from Bernini's sculpture rape of proserpina (yay art history)
