No Kathleen Lolley yet, where's sean?
I wouldn't know how to stop in listing my fave paintings, but here are a few I like by a friend/colleague of mine, Melora Kuhn:
They probably won't translate well at this size, but they are large oil paintings.

I had to search for this by going through each page. Favorite is spelled favourite, no wonder it didn't come up in my search. Anyways.....

COOL! I've never seen this one. First of all, I'm with you Tracy...LOVE me some Goya. The Prado in Madrid is one of my favorite museums because of their collection of his stuff. Here are some others:

QuoteIs that girl blowing that guy's flute?
;D I think it's funny how spent the guy looks, totally drained of energy. But, yeah, that's what's supposed to be going on, those two enjoying each other. The painting is by Titian, and called (something like) Three Ages of Manhood. I guess young adulthood should be spent getting your flute blown ;D

YES, another great one. Have you seen the movie Frida? It's great but they should've done it in Spanish, it would've been more of a tribute that way. Still, its very good.

either that or i dragged the smaller version of the image on to my computer forgetting to click on it to enlarge it. ;)

Mine was Picasso's Blue Nude (1902). I also love, love, love Georgia O'Keefe. Her colors...just amazing! Some people get uncomfortable by the Yoni-esque feel of some of her flowers, but I find them amazing:

Yeah excellent website & amazing paintings! I suppose that comparisons to Giger are somewhat obvious but also inevitable. Wikipedia says that he was murdered in 2005, very sad. I just ordered this book: http://www.amazon.com/Fantastic-Art-Beksinski-Masters/dp/188339838X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1240924021&sr=1-1

I think he's way better than Giger.

Seriously though, those are excellent!
