Favorite Artists/Favorite Art By Them

Post your top 5 works by your favorite artist here, and a little about it. Mine is Salvador Dali.

Salvador Dali (Surrealist)

1. Lugubrious Game:


I love it because it is his first awesome surrealist painting, true masterpiece.


2. The Ghost of Vermeer Delft Which Can Be Used As A Table:


It's just so odd and blunt. The name definitely enhances the experience.


3. The Burning Giraffe:


Eerie and dark compared to his other paintings. Also, watch this video. See some structural similarities in the masked women?


4. Destino:


Created by Salvador and Walt Disney, then shelved. In 2000, Walt's nephew discovered it and remastered it for modern film. It is only 6 minutes and 47 seconds long, but it is still great.


5. The Persistence of Memory:


His most famous painting, it's got melting clocks and doesn't afraid of anything.

Anything from MC Esher is amazing.

Salvador was mah favorite artist too! D:

... I guess I'll choose Roger Dean.

1. Home For Life


Not a painting, but an actual house. I love it because it makes the surreal real. It reminds me of Dr. Suess.

2. Yellow City


Interesting colors and that giant rock formation in the back confuses the hell out of me because at a first glance it looks out of proportion, but then at a closer look it's not.

3. Asia Aura


The cover for Asia's Aura album. Really creepy.

4. Tales from Topographic Oceans


The cover for the next Yes album. The left half looks underwater, but the right half looks like a desert. Really weird.

5. Flights of Icarus


Roger Dean's most famous work. He's even making a movie about it. xD

Whoa, I like the Aura one.
