whose your favorite artist?

I don't like picasso. I don't understand why so many people like picasso. He was a total sell out, all of his popular paintings are not the style he tried to get famous with...he only started doing stuff like that after it got popular, he only did it for money. Although, if I had to go with a picasso painting I really like Guernica.
I also really like Toulouse-Lautrec,
Fransico Goya,
Rembrandt.

I like Warhol too, I really like my art teachers work..Ms.Wynam...my brother is super good too...I just love all art.

I wish I was better but this is the best I can do.

gustav klimt.. very erotic.

 

ive always had a strange affinity for kazimir malevich.
since i was a weeee lil boy.
[my dad had a print.. still does actually]

 

There are many, many paintings that I love but I have a real soft spot for all the work of William Blake. Poet, writer and engraver extraordinaire.

Peace,
Aidan.

 

i'd probably have to say roger dean, the guy who did the alblum covers for yes back in the 70s.

other then myself, though i don't begin to consider myself in the league of real art.
ursula vernon is though, and i like her stuff. actually there are a lot of older artists, even going back to the renasaunce who'se stuff i like at least some of.

what intrests me are depictions of clean tecnologies in harmony with nature, and or in more or less fantasy and or science fictional type settings. i like roger dean and antonio gaudi and several others whose names i can never seem to remember for their architectural concept. i'm really into the organic seaming forms possible with fero-cement.

so what interests me is what i also, perhaps somewhat feebly attempt to depict, and that is the kind of world i wish to live in. and i do feel there are waaaay too few, really good artists depicting what i mean.

michael whalin comes to mind as depicter of alien aliens in totally realistic ways and settings. another subject i like muchly, the sort that graces the covers of really good science fictional paperbacks.

Salvador Dali​

 

Gustave Dore, he was an 18th century artist.




(I have some of his pictures on my blog.)

 

My best friend's three year old...if that counts...

 

Right.
Well, I do love Salvador Dali's work
as I mentioned a few pages back.

But..
I failed to mention how
much much older art means to me.
Especiallysince I've visited the Louvre in Paris.
Oh my lord, so much famous beauty there...

See..
You can't understand the power of the Venus De Milo
or even the simple Mona Lisa
until you see it in person.
Whoever sculpted that work of art..
Venus De Milo...
wow...

I love all forms of art but I think
I'm partial to sculpture for some reason..
there's something so beautiful about it.
Just draws me in, really.

But, wow,
Renaissance, Greek, Roman, Egyptian,
Italian, French, Dutch, Spanish,
English,
SOOO many things to look at.

I'd recommend visiting the Louvre to
everyone and anyone
I come across.
It's a lovely museum.
It really opens your mind to art.

As people mentioned.. yes,
Alex Grey, too..
nothing quite like
his stunningly
trippy art.

Sorry I've rambled WAY too long..!

 

Either Dali, Picasso, or Max Ernst.

 

audrey kawasaki, amy sol, josephine wall, kukala,...there are so many!

Brandon Boyd is my favorite artist

 

andy warhol has ALWAYS been my fave.

 

I'm really into this artist who does this crazy, real-looking, trippy stuff. His name is Naoto Hattori. You can look at his stuff HERE.
I highly recommend it. It is truly something to behold.

Oh, haha. Someone mentioned him already on this very page. Oops. Well that just proves that he's super awesome then.
