| favourite paintings Posted: 6/19/2008 5:23:39 PM | | I LOVE Dali. Specifically, A Couple with Their Heads Full of Clouds...I find it incredibly romantic. Persistance of Memory too, who couldn't love that...has so many emotions in it... | |
|
| favourite paintings Posted: 6/19/2008 6:30:41 PM | Ahhh, Dali ... yes, yes ... and Erte ... oh yea ... good call on both of those incredibly gifted artists ... they are at the top of my favorites list!
I love this particular artwork ...
Antique Ruins of Rome by Hubert Robert, 1786
The piece was part of a trilogy commissioned by the Grand Duke Petrovich for the halls of the Kamennoostrovsky Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia

| favourite paintings Posted: 7/19/2008 8:02:15 PM | | What a great thread. One close to my heart... I love so many, but the two that really stick out in my mind are Edward Blair Leighton's - God Speed, and John Everett Millais' -Opheila. I guess I'm a Pre-Raphaelite junkie. :) However, as of late I have become very fond of Pino Daeni's work. :) Once again, great thread. | |

My goodness, its like a modern Manet crossed with Degas! ...or something...
Beautiful, thank you. | |

| favourite paintings Posted: 9/2/2008 9:32:37 PM | | A wall mural of Dali's Persistence of Memory would be nice :-). Besides Dali, I also like Claude Monet. | |

| favourite paintings Posted: 9/3/2008 11:59:12 PM | I'm holding out for any original Rembrandt. Got just the spot for it. | |
|
| favourite paintings Posted: 9/4/2008 5:31:31 PM | If I could have ONE painting, I would love to own Claude Monet's 'Terrace At St. Adresse". I was fortunate enough to see an exhibit of some of his works years ago. The man was an absolute genius. His brushstrokes and use of colour are just brilliant.  | |

| favourite paintings Posted: 9/11/2008 5:26:32 AM | | I absolutely adore Sas Christian and Mark Ryden anything by either one would be fabulous! | |
|
| favourite paintings Posted: 9/11/2008 7:48:19 AM | I like Van Gogh's "Starry Night" as well as M.C. Escher.
Salvador Dali is interesting at times, too.
But, I'd also prefer a nice black and white photo that either myself or one of my daughters took.
There's an artist in the Arkansas area called William McNamara:

His paintings are so intricately detailed that they look like photographs.
