Did you knew that Mark Rothko committed suicide?

This is a website that I thought gave good information on the artist Mark Rothko. This website said that he was born in Russia and also information on his life. From Russia, he moved with his family to Portland, Oregon and from there he moved to New York to study art with the artist name Max Weber. After he studied there, he was ready to start painting and he was one of the best student that Max had. Later when he was out of that school, he started to have his career go up. At first he was known as an abstract expressionism and throughout the years of his career, he moved his mood in his paintings. He has an interesting art because there really isn’t that much of shapes and not that much work. I couldn’t believe that this person would get money for just having lines with color. I know that for some people, this is art but for me, his art is not that well as other artist. He was making good money and he was rising up as an artist and in the year of 1970, he committed suicide. He had a good life for it to come and yet he ruined it by killing himself.
