They're great clouds! And he was always so soft spoken. He could do anything with just a brush and a little paint. And the "little trees lived over here" and "let's put a little rock here". What a terrific guy. :)

I've seen him create and it's amazing. He makes it look so easy!


Is he the guy with the big bad hair?

I have seen him too and he affects me like Mr. Rogers did with my kids(and me).Don't want to watch, but can't stop watching. :)

He is spellbinding!

He does make the nicest and happiest fluffy white clouds LMAO

i like European Autobody [woodbridge ontario]

faerie_princess 01-17-2005 07:14 PM

Well my own of course............

But after that I'm a Henri de Touloouse-Lautrec fan! his work is great.

I enjoy Monet (have Nympheas, effet du soir and La Seine a Giverny in my living room), I also really enjoy O'Keefe and I think I will get some of her reproductions in my next re-dec.

A more contemporary artist that I enjoy is Robert Duncan.

Mae,

I love the classics, Michelangelo Buonorotti et al, and some of the neo-classicals.

There is something about a naked bronze nymph.

Oldfart 01-18-2005 11:52 AM

BTW, did no-one mention Escher?

Mae 01-18-2005 12:09 PM

Nope. Not until you just did. :) His prints are fantastic! I like the one with the perpetual staircase. Another print is of him and his wife? (I think, not sure), and their heads are peeling like and apple peel. (Make sense? :o )

Oldfart 01-18-2005 12:16 PM

His fish that turn into birds and the other evolutions are sooooo cool.

PantyFanatic 01-18-2005 12:47 PM

I like his self-portrait holding the reflective sphere

Mae 01-18-2005 02:31 PM

AHA! Found the title of the three Escher prints I have."Bond of Union" (peeling heads), "Relativity" (perpetual staircase) and "Three Worlds" (the fish and trees).

(Small note: In the animated series "Futurama", Bender the robot falls down the staircases in an Escher print...non-stop.) :rofl:
