It's sad how sometimes when sharing our favourite works of art, we have to question whether it's pretentious or typical to say an artist like Dali, for instance.

I recently saw an exhibit of all of his works while in Venice, and they are so incredible and absorbing to look at.

I'm rather fond of Dali, Munch, Whitely, Kahlo, to name a few...

Vermeer, Van Gogh, Toorop , La Tour, Dali (while I know that several artists could be mentioned largely because of their fame, I am truly awed by his work )

Another painter who I love is Michael Sowa, I don't have any pics, but as an odd bit of trivia, the artwork in the film Amelie (in her bedroom especially) is by him
