Question: Who Is Your Favorite Artist For Paintings!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Leonardo da VinciWww@QuestionHome@Com

It is impossible for me to choose just one (or just 10 even!)!.
My favorites -- and that's always plural like I said -- depend on what I'm doing, how I'm feeling!.
Right now I'm really fascinated by figures and portraits so I'm getting off on Jenny Saville, Lucien Freud, Marlene Dumas, to name but a few!.
I'm also currently learning a lot about color and the qualities of oil versus acrylic paints!. So I'm also looking at Luc Tuymans (he's Belgian and brilliant) and some oldies but goodies -- Matisse, Gauguin, Chagall!.
The first artist I really noticed (and who stole my very young heart; I think I was 8-9-years-old, maybe younger) was Michelangelo!. I love his paintings but I think I love his sculpture more!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
