04.09.11 | Cool painter, Dali. I'm just not all that much of a fan of his style, a little too overstated or something for me. |
Relinquished
04.09.11 | yeah Dali is one of my favorites. I kind of dabbled in the history in surrealism back then and got many books.
Rene Magritte was another great artist in surrealism that I enjoyed. |

04.09.11 | Surrealism is silly. It's all about Romanticism, guys. |

04.09.11 | I've always loved painting/drawing. I'm particularly fond of Dali, Cezanne and Hokusai. |

04.09.11 | I really like Andrew Wyeth's stuff. 'specially this one: http://www.seattlemet.com/assets/0001/7886/SAM-Wyeth-BlackVelvet.jpg?1245889726
Francis Bacon's stuff is real cool and creeps me the fuck out.
Amedeo Modigliani is also another guy I like a whole lot.
Rene Magritte is another guy who does some awesome stuff plus he's got one painting called "Lovers" (http://www.art-for-a-change.com/blog/images/july05/magrit.jpg) that I've seen directly referenced to in the horror movie "Cemetery Man," and episode of "Party Down," and on the cover of that one funeral for a friend album.
anyway those are all probably real obvious but i dnt know much about painting. |

04.09.11 | I'm doing an extended essay on how the use of psychedelic drugs effects the surrealist process, and whether the image that is being painted is augmented by the drugs, or if it is a different vision that is produced by the drugs themselves.
You should check out Alex Grey. He did the artwork for Tool's Lateralus and 10,000 Days. |

04.09.11 | Dali is also one of my favorites. |

04.09.11 | want to play some mario kart now..
guess ill jump on the bandwagon and say dali is my fav. I took a digital art class and we had to recreate paintings in photoshop (which isnt hard) but i chose The Persistence of Memory by Dali as mine. |
