whose your favorite artist?

i really like alex grey, and i basically like any artist that draws outside the box, like alex himself

 

Marcel Duchamp!

Georgio de Chirico

Clyde Connell

Barbara Brainard

Joseph Cornell

Jasper Johns

Alexander Calder

Goya
to name a few........

 

Alfons Mucha...Love me some Art Nouveau.

 

Dali or H.R Giger

 

Paul Gauguin

 

Dali and henri rousseau.

Great stuff.

 

I like a lot of artists. Some of the more popular ones such as Dali, Monet, and Caravaggio, but most artists that I gravitate towards are fairly recent.

Alex Grey

Roger Dean

Michael Hussar

Sako Shaninian.

I love Lawren Harris (I don't understand why so many Canadians hate the Group of Seven! It's such beautiful iconic art!)

Derek Hess.

Eric Chan - I went to university with this guy and he is just out-of-control talented.


I also love Aboriginal artwork, especially upper North American:
Alex Janvier.

John Rombough (absolutely LOVE this artist; work is incredible).



Anyways, I could list off a couple more, but these are just some of my favourites!

 

Banksy.

 

Pretty sure I've already said this but I really love Zdzislaw Beksinski, it's so dark and fantastic. Also, I'm a hooker for impressionism, so I need my VanGogh

 

i just came across some pics of edward hopper paintings.they are very good.

 

there are lots of good artists in the world and i am having a hard time choosing one!

The Norton Simon Museum is about 3 miles from my house. They have a Vermeer on loan from the Smithsonian. It's freakin' beautiful.

 

grandma moses,winslow homer,daniel chester french and simon rodia who built the watts towers in los angeles,ca.

 

n.c. weyeth.his illustrations for books especially "treasure island" and "the last of the mohicans" added greatly to my enjoyment of those stories.

 

louis sullivan,cass gilbert,frank lloyd wright,eero saarinen,ludwig mies van der rohe,ralph rapson are architects of buildings i have enjoyed seeing.much of their work is in the midwest of the u.s. where i live which could be a factor.

 

u can say that again
