Roman Opałka was a French-born Polish painter who painted numbers. In 1965 he began painting a process of counting – from one to infinity. Starting in the top left-hand corner of the canvas and finishing in the bottom right-hand corner, the tiny numbers were painted in horizontal rows. As of July 2004, he had reached 5.5 million.

Holy...if the average person was as dedicated in their lives as he is with his paintings, the world would be a much better place.

What article? The line that said "Roman Opałka WAS a French-born Polish painter who painted numbers."

I figured he made a career change. God knows if I counted to 5.5 million, I would be looking to do something else.

I can see how you saw it that way. He only recently died anyway (August 2011). That dialogue just immediately popped into my head, so I had to run with it. And now I have to rent the movie.
