Who is Your Favorite Visual Artist of ALL Time?

[Olivianna]

Just curious. I don't know who I would say ... yet - I'll post later. Maybe elaborate on why it is that you like that particular artist's work.

Thanks.

Ok. Do you have any idea why you like VG's paintings?

 

[Silverluna]

the texture....the color....the subject matter....they all seem to work....

big fan of Dali, Bosch and Mike Bohatch- www.eyesofchaos.com
Why? because their art reflects what I am thinking/feeling, sometimes innocent wonderings, sometimes murky and troublesome observations.

Georgia O'Keefe

It's not fair to ask a question, and not be prepared to answer said question, yourself.

He wrote many books, illustrated by his pen and ink drawings

One of his characters is Zen Dog:
"The irony is this: If you don't go in, you can never find out"

Some more Dennis Mukai....if it works.

Van Gogh is my fave. His use of texture and subject are amazing. I even named my son after him.

I hadn't heard of him, but after checking out the link I think I could become a fan.

Escher...The man was a genius.

By the way....I never wanted to suggest it before because my friend Agezinder used to use a self portrait she did in the Mukai style as an AV, but since she has moved on to other things, some of the Mukai stuff would make great AV's for the girls......

A little known fact also....Dr Jack Kevorkian was, and is a very good, and dark artist. I hope this loads...if it does I will show some more of his work.

 

[Killswitch]

Well poo....I cant see the attachment...can you?

Scott Prior

I have this one "Nanny and Rose" on my wall. It is just arresting, its beauty in the details.

Wow JP.....that Scott Prior work has a LOT of dimensional qualities not often seen in a drawing, or painting.

Neat.

When I was in junior high, there was a traveling exhibit of his work. The security was poor and I was able to physically touch one of his paintings. I believe it was "Starry Night". What I do remember clearly was feeling the intensity in the paint, electric.

His work is so powerful

There is the slightest hint of surrealism in his work, and yet it is of the everyday

I get the same intense powerful feeling every time I touch your AV on my screen.

You have to be if not one of.....the most sensual, and sexy looking women on here.

Call me wierd, but your photo has always spoken to me somehow.

It's just a picture, but to me it's a piece of art.
