Just wondering: wich are your favourite artists of all times???

I like artists from the Romanticism cause they show their feelings without following any rules, it's a rejection to all the other movements before.
One of my favourites is William Turner: http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/turner/


From this movement I also like Friedrich a lot:

And Surrealism is my favourite movement. I had to prepare a work for school about it, so I fell in love with it...I like Dali a lot, he was so weird, but definitely a great genious... http://www.salvador-dali.org

I also love Rene Magritte: http://www.atara.net/magritte/index.html

I've always love Van Gogh, especially his Irises (http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/gogh/irises/gogh.irises.jpg)

And Degas' Ballerinas (http://www.artsoho.net/img/ddegas02.jpg)

And Georgia O'Keefe's Flowers (http://handrade.tripod.com/okeeffe.jpg)

And Mary Cassat's Mother and children (http://www.lizaveta.it/img/Mary-cassat.jpg)

There's MUCH more, but these have always been favorites - the above are just examples of the series I love. Not particular favorite images.

Salvador Dali is my all-time favorite.
I've been the the Museum in St. Petersburg numerous times. I love his work so much. It's just so full of many random details yet somehow ties together. It's really hard to really appreciate them from a computer image.

I hope no one's offended by this because it's merely art, but I have to say this is probably my most favorite piece of his.

I can't remember who it was but I found an artist that only uses dogs with great conformation as models, and her/his paintings are so real. I looove them!
oh and I love muttart.com !
