Óscar M. Domínguez (1906 – 1957) was a Spanish surrealist painter. Born in San Cristóbal de La Laguna on the island of Tenerife, Canary Islands in Spain, Domínguez spent his youth with his grandmother in Tacoronte and devoted himself to painting at a young age after suffering from severe disease. At the age of 21, he left for Paris where he first worked for his father at the central market of Les Halles, and spent his nights diving in cabarets. He then attended several art schools and visited galleries and museums.
He was quickly attracted to avant-garde painters, notably Yves Tanguy and Pablo Picasso, whose influences are visible in his early works. At the age of 25, he painted a self-portrait full of premonition where he showed himself with a deformed hand and cut veins in his arm. He chose to commit suicide 27 years later by cutting his veins.
