I like Andy Warhol.
But that's just me.

I like a lot of artists

Vincent van Gogh and Henry Matisse.

Andy Worhol. I love his work.

I'm not impressed by him. He didn't even paint the stuff, just screen printed it.

Edgar Degas, hands down. His ability to combine realism with a little bit of fantasy is beautiful.

Somehow I'm amused by that!

But then again, the topic didn't ask who was your favorite painter, it said artist.

Well out of those that are very famous, I'd say Salvador Dali and I also really love David LaChappelle's photography.

Marc Chagall. He was amazing. For someone who was a little obsessed with the Bible, his work was transcendent in so many ways.

My mom.


Well you never said they had to be famous.

Despite a minimal interest in painting, I have always had a particular taste for René François Ghislain Magritte. I love me some good surrealism. I always did my art projects on him. Heh heh.



Granted, most of my favorite artists are best known for their work in video (i.e. Fellini, Lynch, Tarantino, etc). This is mainly because my extent of knowledge is far greater in the aspect of film and cinema as opposed to any other medium of art. Doesn't mean I can't enjoy art of all forms.

I love a LOT of artist's work. But if I have to choose one, I would say it's Degas. His paintings are beautiful. Enough said.

I absolutely love Mucha's works.

Edward Hopper and Alphonse Mucha.

My favorite artists are Basquiat, Justin Bua, Debra Hurd, and Paul Balmer.
My favorite photographers are Patrick Demarchelier, Peter Yang and Chris Weeks

i don't have a particular favorite

Red Skelton because i have an original painting above my bed.
Pablo Picasso
Vincent Van Gogh

Rene Magritte
Vincent Van Gogh
Frank Stella

And cooler pop art artists than Andy Warhol:
Roy Lichtenstein
Jasper Johns
Robert Rauschenberg

You're such a groovin' lady. I've always thought that Andy Warhol was ridiculously overrated. And Roy Lichtenstein totally rocks the Casbah.

Monet is my favorite.
And Mrs. Brooks. (a friends mom, she is so talented)

Claude Monet, Ansel Adams, Harry Callahan

andy warhol. he's amazinggggg & very unique

Matisse

Now that you mention is Warhol is not half as bad.

diego rivera

One of my favorite artists is the guitar player from the band tool...

the things he creates are just so incredibly imaginable...

I love Alphonse Mucha's art

I just love his art style. The people look realistic, but not really, and they're always in smooth flowy positions. And the borders are always so unique and busy.

i love jean michael basquiat (sp?), andy warhol, and degas.

It would have to be between... Lostprophets, P!ATD, ro The Academy Is..

Skottie Young
This guy named Cheeks I found on Deviantart a while back. Holy hell for his stuff being so basic (forms and such) he's really got some good stuff.

Photographers? Anyone but me, since apparently I don't have an "eye" for it.
But I think I just try too hard.

Brian Andreas, hands down. He's amazing, even if people do find his work creepy/eccentric. I like that it's different.

Hmm, I really like Monet's paintings, I love the whole Impressionist style. My favorite photographer is probably Ansel Adams.

Wtf? Artist as in art, not music.

Sophie Delaporte is starting to grow on me.

Oh my. I can't think of his name. I'm going to have to go search and try finding him.

-searches-

picasso - may not be "beautiful"
but i love the abstract work of his

Well there's the classics like da Vinci, Rembrandt, and Michelangelo. More modern artists include: Alphonse Mucha, John Jude Palencar, Louis Royo, Michael Parkes, and David Bowers. Oh...and Disney animators such as Freddie Moore and Marc Davis are my heroes.

hm, is it bad that i don't have a favorite artist...

well, i've always admired da vinci and michelangelo....



hm, but usually my favorite artists, the one i keep track on,
are the random talent i find on deviantart.

i know that might sound stupid, but i love seeing other peoples work like that. and some of them are pretty amazing

I love a lot of artist's work, but one of my favorites is a French painter named Ingres.
I love the way he paints his eyes... They look so expressive.

escher .

the guy thats creates optical illusions like the stairs that have no ending.

Monet and Van Gogh. I love everything and anything Impressionistic, including music (which is why I love Debussy).

You're right, Escher was brilliant.
I love the hands drawing hands that he did.
Amazing work...

Picasso, Van Gogh, Edward Munch, Magritte, Frank Stella, Monet... to name a few.

I searched but no topic came up. Anyway my favorite artist of all time would have to be Kurt Halsey. I have always loved his stuff for a few years now.

.. really? It's still on the first page of the art forum. :x

Topics Merged

And to add another new favorite, I've really been enjoying Mimmo Rotella lately.

Yea I searched too, I knew there had to be someone that made the topic.

james rosenquist is absolutely amazing.

audrey kawasaki is amazing, too.

Peter Max.
he has a gallery in Santana row.

and Thomas Kinkade.

ARTIST ? Drawing Right ? Ha i'm slow.

I like Leonardo Da Vinci, his things are just so, weeeirdd .

andy warhol. for so many reasons.

and i also kinda think betsey johnson is an artist in her own right. so her too. and even though i think she is horribly vain, i love jac vanek's photography.

Banksy. He is amazing. (google him if you don't know him.. he is a british graffiti artist. looove his work)
