Favorite Painter/Artist

I didn't see a thread, and I wanted to broaden my horizons. :weird

My favorite, as of right now, are:

Alex Pardee

and


Salvidor Dali.

Share!

Mark Rothko. Or Klimt because I love the way he seems the woman. And then I like strange Flemish Renaissance painters -namely Hieronymus Bosch and Bruegel the Elder because I always find something unsettling about their paintings. But still, Mark Rothko.

I have a really cool art history books called On n'y voit rien (You don't see anything) by Daniel Arasse, it's funny, witty, completely enchanting and makes you see visual arts in a new way. You should check it out if you manage to find it.

I love Heather Gabel, Salvador Dali, and Andy Warhol.

I'm a Cubism/Expressionism fangirl.

Picasso, I love Picasso. His French counterpart Georges was also very good. Van Gogh, naturally.

The Pre-Raphelites also fascinate me.

Off the top of my head, Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt, and Audrey Kawasaki are my top favourites all because I adore the way they paint/draw their women, they're so beautiful but they all have a slightly disturbing edge to them. I love Alan Lee as well, he was one of the lead concept artists for the Lord Of The Rings films, he's also illustrated the books. And the pre-Raphaelites are breathtaking, I've got a few more.

Alex Pardee, Van Gogh, and Picasso. That is all. :hand:

I adore Salvidor Dali. Seriously, his work amazes me.

Alex Pardee, he's simply amazing.

I love James Jean. He is brilliant. Also, Salvador Dali. :3

Jenny Saville, Egon Schiele, John Tenniel, Katsushika Hokusai, Tim Sale, Roy Lichtenstein and Alex Pardee.
And loads more but I can't think right now.

Definitely Dali. I've loved his work for ages and still never cease to be amazed by it.

Luke Chueh.
He did the cover art for Fall Out Boy's Folie a Deux, and his work is wonderful.

Mark Ryden :file: Wondertoonel is amazing.

Damien Hirst: I love his spotty ones, LSD, Valium. They're all great. I also quite like his Golden Cow, but I couldn't find a photo.


Richard Dadd. Crazy, but amazing amazing amazing detail.

I actually really like Dali's early work.

Bridget Riley.

And then there are loads of paintings on their own I love. April Love. She is my favorite pre raph. There is a painting of a child Jesus in a carpenters with a bleeding finger. I'm no Christian, but I love that painting. And then there's the one with a woman sat by a piano.
I'm a proper art lovey. (:

As of right now:
Norman Rockwell- he did the artwork for the Saturday Evening Post
Andreas Deja- He's one of the top animators at Disney, if he counts. :XD

Salvador Dali.
Andy Warhol.
Sergio Aragones.
Hermann Mejia.
Daniel Merriam.

Two of them do comics for MAD. :tehe:

Edit; I forgot some. Silly me.

Michelangelo.
van Gogh.
Jan Vermeer.

I'm into Monet and Manet, Picasso is amazing also.

Alex Pardee
Andy Warhol
Audrey Kawasaki
Frida Kahlo

Andy Warhol and Gerard Way.
The 2 never cease to amaze me.
