Wikipedia has some pretty good info on art forgery here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_forgery
This page includes a list of known forgers towards the bottom, with links to pages about them. Also, check out a fabulous book called "The art forger's handbook" by Eric Hebborn, a british-born forger.

Um, why would you want an art forger? If you want a reproduction of a painting executed, there are many artists who will do a reproduction of a painting. Forgeries are illegal by definition. If you actually wanted a forgery made, you would be ill-advised to advertise the fact on a public forum such as Yahoo questions.

Several books have been written about art forgers and art forgery in general. Try your local library and University library for information to at least get you started. These books may have on line and other references to assist you.
Good luck!

Contact any of Her Majestys Prisons in the U.K. I am sure that they have a long list of people who can help offering free board and lodgings for life whilst completing the masterpiece of your choice.
