I have been involved in the arts all my life, and no matter how awsome i think a painting is, when i visit a museum and see it in person, it is always 100 times more amazing to me.

Guernica by Pablo Picasso




my all-time favorite, if you couldn't tell by my avatar. i can sit and look at this for hours. i've probably had 5 different prints of it to hang over the years. it's currently hanging in my cubicle and work and i'm going to get a giant-ass version of it when i move into my own place.

dali's untitled (female figure with head of flowers)



it's more collage work usually but i get lost in it...
nick bantock (venetian's wife)


again not a painting but an engraving (after visiting mexico)
jose guadalupe posada's don ferruco and his love


from yet another book series i love
from terry jones's lady cottington's pressed fairies

LES LOISIRS by Fernand Leger cloud9

But pretty much anything by him. He's one of my biggest influences.

Oh yes! I also love me some Dali and Picasso. They are my favourites, along with Van Gogh. I got like 8 reproductions of their work in my home. Among them these:

I know it seems self-indulgent, but these are probably my favorite paintings that I've done so far.

I don't know about other artists, but for me it's very seldom that I can enjoy my own work the way I do the work of others.

All gone. I miss them.
