Jean Michel Basquiat. Basquiat is was a brilliant postmodernist/neo expressionist artist. Check out Maya Angelou's book Life Doesn't Frighten Me. His intense paintings paired with her words...it is amazing.

re: Edward Hopper
I like Edward Hopper. His realistic yet haunting pictures speak today as much as they did to his time. My favorite picture of his is of a man in alone in a dinner looking across the area. His image of reflection and almost despair speak to me of the way people must feel now, with all the unemployment, foreclosure, etc.
If I knew how to put a picture in a post, I would put that one. Lady_Wu

Frida Khalo :: is my hero
In the face of it all, she lived and loved passionately, without apology, she knew she was worthy of LOVE. Now that's a real WOMAN, I want to be like her......................

Metropolitan Museum of Art - Erotic Scene "La Douleur"
http://www.metmuseum.org/works_of_ar...210003565&vT=1
Picasso often painted erotica in his early years. Over 100+ years later, it displays in one of the world's most important museums. Progress. |

Bathus: Solitaire(La patience)
I did not even know this painting existed until I wandered by it at the Art Institute of Chicago, in 2003. It reminds me of alone time when I was a kid...and is a very candid scene. I've since read up on Balthus to discover he was somewhat of a perverted voyeur; but this piece is just incredible.

When I visited Paris last December, I could not take my eyes off this craft. She is on the way to Mona Lisa; and I spent around 1 minute at Mona Lisa...and 20 staring at, photographing, and musing on Nike.

This painting is called Cliff by Monet. Normandy was the region that Monet loved, and this was painted by him there. To Me.. the serene... the warmth of the painting is what strikes Me.

Georgia O'Keefe is My all time favorite artist. I love her watercolors especially. The depth in each painting of her's just "wows" Me. This is a pastel that she had done. I was fortunate enough to see her works in a museum out West a few years ago. It is a moment in time I will always remember. The same for visiting the Ansel Adams museum in Monterey, CA.
This one is called Blue Flower and was painted in 1918. |

Van Gogh has always been a favorite, and particulary his Starry Night and Starry Night Over the Rhone. Anything related to stars I absolutely love, and the colors captivate me. |
