It's hard to name a few, there are so many...I love art and various forms of art, not just paintings.

** Most of Picasso's Blue Period
**I'm a huge fan of folk art - can't even name a fav here...
**Photography is by far my favorite - 2 of my fav photographers are Dorothy Sebastian, her photos are brilliant and Helen Levitt because she captures simple things but the photos speak volumes.
**I love colored, blown glass. I would like to find a place where I could make something with glass.
** Pottery is cool, we have a shop here locally where you can paint your own piece. It would be fun if I could actually mold something as well.

I'm not necesarily a fan of picasso(i just dont realy understand him) but the storie behind that painting is horific and painted well by picasso.

The Scream - Edvard Munch

Favorite style: Living.


Favorite piece: ....

I like his work but it is damn difficult to pronounce his name. I love Magrites but it was several years before i could pronounce his name corectly. Why can't the artist just be naned somthing simple like bob or fred?

Dennis good to see you around the forums again.

My favorite piece of art is:
The female human body! Truly a work of art! And you ask, why? Just look for yourself, and you'll see why!

We may not get along with all/every female, but they still behold the most exquisite/beautiful piece of art! Themselves!

This painting has been stolen several times ,,,,, usualy you are a man of many words , why so few today? The painting is great and saids a lot on its own. You did not answer the question of why.

A green ashtray made out of pottery by my son when he was about 6 years old for mothers day.

I studied arts and crafts, from a needle till a brush, I always wanted to paint my future but I could not. The Nuns let me trauma....

I really love- botticelli's 'birth of venus'

But reubens 'the head of john the baptist', 'rape of leviticus' daughters' and his 'head of medusa' are amazingly graphic and profound.

Dali's 'mae west' as amazing for its 3D visuality
Oh and woods 'american gothic' is amazing for its stoicism and morbid humor

I love the "Impressionist" period and adore anything by most of the struggling artists from this period.

Monet,s "Gardens at Giverny" springs to mind for the delicate colours.
My all time favourite has to be Renoir's "Luncheon of the boating party " It's sheer size is amazing,the colors and attention to detail.Especially likeable because it's a true representation of life in those days,as all his friends and his lover were in the picture.

Coooooool...
