I've never understood why he is screaming? Is he running from the people? Who are the people? Why are they dressed in suits? ect, ect, ect. Love it. So intense.

Great thread. I like Vincent (Willem) Van Gogh's artwork. Turner, Constable and a few others' landscape paintings.

Don't have file hosting though so I can't upload the paintings here.

Love the thread.

I've always loved this painting. I'm not quite sure why, but I think it is beautiful in a sad sort of way.

Hi Chair,

You should visit this museum if you ever come to Los Angeles unless you have already been. I visited there on a field trip for French Club and I enjoyed the French Impressionism artwork displayed. About About [LACMA: Los Angeles County Museum of Art]

I want to go so badly. but nobody else I know likes art AND live in the vicinity. =(

Holy dang... Chair, those were inspirational!

I like Fancis Bacon's series of Pope Innocent becoming progressively more macabre

Van Gogh's Road Menders is pretty awesome..

My all time favorite is Fred Tomaselli's Big Raven..

the .gif doesn't do it even the vaguest semblance of justice... 8 feet high, multilayered painting and collage... EPIC

Chuck Close is also a total badass

I just stared at both of these for about 10 minutes each. I think I'm going to have to make them my favourites too now - completely inexpendable.
