Later, he concentrated on painting. His first paintings were abstract art, but throughout the sixties he made his surrealist inspirations more visible. In the 1970s he entered what he himself called his "fantastic period", which lasted up to the late 1980s. This is his best known period, during which he created very disturbing images, showing a surrealistic, post-apocalyptic environment with very detailed scenes of death, decay, landscapes filled with skeletons, deformed figures, deserts, all very detailed, painted with his trademark precision, particularly when it came to rough, bumpy surfaces. His highly detailed drawings are often quite large, and may remind some of the works of Ernst Fuchs in their intricate, and nearly obsessive rendering. Despite the grim overtones, he claimed some of these paintings were misunderstood, as they were rather optimistic, or even humouristic.
Позднее Бекшински сконцентрировал свои творческие усилия на живописи. Его первые картины относились к абстрактному искусству, но на протяжении шестидесятых годов он всё более склонялся к сюрреализму. В 1970-х годах Бекшински вступил в период, который он сам назвал "фантастическим", который продолжался вплоть до поздних 80-х годов. Это наиболее известный период его творчества, когда он создавал свои самые знаменитые впечатляющие образы, изображающие сюрреалистические, постапокалиптические картины сцен смерти, распада, пейзажи со множеством скелетов, искажённых тел, пустынь.
