Dali is a big favorite of mine as well as MC Escher. I have a few poster prints of theirs adorning our apt. walls.

:D wOOt ! I did artsacademy. My fav artist has to be Giorgo de
Chirico. Funny thing is, Sony used his art for inspiration for the
boxart of the PAL Ico game. I bet they came up with the name
Ico from Chir-ico ! :laughing:

My favorite artist is Dali as well.Lucky for me the only Dali art gallery in the U.S. is 15 min.from my house right here in downtown St.Petersburg.I\'ve probably been there over a dozen times and believe me no picture in a book can really bring out the detail of his paintings.Even after being there so many times I still see something in a painting tht I didn\'t see before.

Yes, that style is really nice, but quite different to a expressionist. :p

I think you mean IMPRESSIONIST!

Bleh, now we\'re equally stupid and you can stop making fun of me.

EDIT: Unless you were talking about that Albrecht Durrer guy, whose style I do not know.
