Non-Comic artists leaving puddles on your floor

Is this okay Maggie? Just looking for a thrill and some pretty pictures.

Here's the deal: post links/pictures/info/anything about your favourite artists. Photographers or painters or sculptors or whatever. Just do it!

Also, make sure there are visuals available (like the artists personal page or whatever) so we can all bask in art-glory.

Rule: No cliche posts about Da Vinci or Dali. Dig a bit deeper. We've all met Mona.

I'll start:

WAYSHAK!

The only man I'll ever love: Jean-Michel Basquiat.

The internet runs low on good Basquiat paintings, I'll find some better examples another day.


The only Warhol work I've ever really enjoyed is the stuff he did with Basquiat. This is a pretty famous poster from their first collaborative show.


SAMO as an end to playing art with the 'radical chic' set on Daddy's $funds


SAMO for the so called avant garde


SAMO as an alternative to the 'meat rack' arteest on display

Died in '88. The man was a God.

Hello Maggie,
I agree, some of Newton???s work is soft porn for skivvy wearers and can be exploitative (my opinion) but this image struck a chord with me abut 8 years and as a result I had written a character that pays homage to it but when trying to explain it to potential illustrators I found they had no idea what I was talking about (most still don???t).

My favourite ever artist is Jill Friemark: http://animatrixie.deviantart.com/
No deeper meaning to most of her stuff. She's a character designer for Nickelodeon which means big, brassy, bold cartoon art which instantly tells you everything you need to know about what it's representing.
That thick lineart kicks arse too...
