Favourite Painters

[iperlchen]

Right now surrealist René Magritte (1898 - 1967) is for me the most inspirational artist.

Paul Gauguin

I've always loved his work, ever since I was little, probably because of the strong colors and contrasts ... His works just have amazing energy (especially his Tahiti period)
