Favourite Artists [possibly NSFW]

Thought I'd start a thread, where you can post pictures of works of your favourite artists. For the purpose of this thread by "artist "I mean someone whos works would be in an Art gallery, though if you want you can post stufdf by other types of artists (such as comic artists if you particularly like their work, or some of the stuff by fedx2k4)

Anyway I'll start of with works by two of my favourite artists (I might post more later).

Firstly: one of Gauguin's works

Secondly: A work by Peter Randle (Yes my father is one of my favourite artists, he is family

Not too sure about "real" artists, but for beautiful comic pictures you can't go far wrong with Deacon Black. (EDIT: NSFW in places)

My personal favorite artist is Hans-Werner Sahm. I've got a print of Refugee hanging in my living room right now as a matter of fact.

Salvador Dali is #1, for me at least.

Ivan Albright is most godly with a paintbrush.

Robert Williams makes sweet love to my mind with every brushstroke.

Todd Schorr, while derivative of Robert Williams, gives us Walt Disney vs Salvador Dali!

Joe Coleman, so deliciously disturbed.

Albrecht Durer is on my top ten list of historical personalities I'd want to meet.

What, no Ruyo? Can't think of any artists off hand, but I do like Chris Moeller, his art in Iron Empires is astounding.

You can see my art over there, too.

Davs,
Tried the link, but as always, I have much trouble accessing dev art sites. Probably cookie probs, but it doesn't bother me much, since many artists have mirror sites. Sorry dude/dudette (?), but I haven't gotten around to solving the problem yet, and won't for a while. Can you direct link from dev art?

Ohh, and anything else OT should wisely be turned into pm/email, since we have hijacked enough for the hour...
