There must be a tread on this somewhere, but Cletus got me inspired to ask this question: Who are your fave artists (painters, sculptors etc. etc.) and can you post a picture of some of these people's works?I am not very into art myself, but we all must have something we like

I'll start! - I love the in-your-faceness of Damien Hirst, very much. When I was in high school these 2 friends of mine did a presentation on him, and I was tres intrigued.. his work is grotesque on the one hand but he also does pieces that are very different from his other work Here's some pieces I like "Vivisection", hyperrealistic oil painting The Physical Impossibility of Death, Actual Shark Mother and Child Divided-Salvador Dali, no need to explain why -Marilyn Manson. Love his music and his artwork "Faunadestia", watercolor Lily White", watercolor -And I LOVE Tori's drawings... no joke

Salvador DaliEdit: Heh, I think we were writing up our post at the same time...Freakin' unreal. ^^Favorite^^ ^^List the images you can see here^^ Norman Rockwell^^I love this one^^ \/\/This image from Mullholland Drive reminds me of that Rockwell painting everytime I see it (frequent desktop)\/\/ I wonder if Lynch was thinking of it when he chose that shot. H.R Giger^^Image from the film Future Kill^^ Combining eroticism w/ dark imagery (this is one of the few PG images I could find!) Clive BarkerFirst book in the "Trilogy of The Art" And he does do paintings, but not a big fan.. Reason for Editing: Mountain Dew

I'm my favorite painter. Because I'm vain and self centered. Also apparant in the fact that 90% of my paintings are self portraits. mylollipopgestapo.deviantart.com

Normally I would but I've been so busy being stuck in my dark theme for various reasons (AP class, a show that expects that) that I haven't had time to do anything cute or just plain aesthetically pleasing. Although, I quite like this one. A little weird, but its not unhappy.
