hooked 0 #1 October 13, 2002 As I was going through my 'saved favorite list', I was wondering if any of you have a favorite Artist/Painter? There are two Artists work I enjoy viewing and both are very different in style. I like the work of Eyvan Earle and Graciela Rodo Boulanger.

dove 0 #5 October 13, 2002 I wish! No point in even emailing her. She only checks it about once every 2 weeks! I'll have to get some digital pics and post em myself. If you are in the D.C. area she has one show in progress now and another staring in 2 weeks. Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seedy 0 #6 October 13, 2002 I really like wildlife art and enjoy the work of Guy Cohleach and Robert Bateman. Other than those, I guess me. I do pencil drawings and paint. I have just about finished a painting of my youngest grandson and am also working on a painting of Gizmo, a rodeo clown. I intend to live forever -- so far, so good.

nws01 0 #7 October 13, 2002 I use to paint and draw a lot. I love art. I need to get back into it. I like too many artists to name a favorite. It is kind of like music. My favorite stayles change depending on the mood I am in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gypsy 0 #10 October 13, 2002 Call me old fashioned, but I still love Monet, Degas, and Camille Pissarro (I love impressionism). Those three will get me to the nearest museum of fine arts anytime! And honorable mention to Michael Aurbach for his "The Administrator" which is undescribable. It's really worth seeing for any art lover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hooked 0 #11 October 13, 2002 Good responses and now I have been busy looking up some of these artists to see their work. Robert Bateman I am familiar with, he is very good. I envy anyone who is able to paint or draw. I cannot paint or draw.J TTL#5 "I am never alone, I always have me". -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.

Snowbird 0 #15 October 14, 2002 Old school... Rubens, Titian, Da Vinci. More recent... Franz Marc, Henry Moore, Degas, Emily Carr. REALLY old... Lascaux caves, everything Celtic.

Airhead 0 #19 October 14, 2002 >i LOVE IMPRESSIONISMYeah, me, too... Took some art classes for about two years- and learned to really like surrealism too. I'm very open to new artists or being introduced to different artist's styles with which I am not familiar. I've had an "artist's block" for a while...But actually did some pencil and pastel sketching at the DZ this past wekend. I really'd love to get back into Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jfields 0 #20 October 14, 2002 I like the work of Chank Diesel, a modern artist in Minneapolis. I have a gallery of stuff I've bought from him on my webpage. http://www.jennandjustin.com/photos-chank-overview.asp I also like Rene Magritte, Alexander Calder, Van Gogh, Picasso, etc. Oddly enough, I am really not a fan of impressionism. Monet, Matisse and the others just leave me sort of cold and bored. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
