At school, in art. I need to find an artist to study. It went from clarice cliff (alright you may argue shes a designer or ceramic artist but anyway) to Tracy Hall, then William Morris. But none of them really capture what i'm looking for. I'd like to find an artist that focuses his work on religion. Like maybe angels. Or a bible scene. I know leonardo and various other famous artists do that but i'm looking for something a tad different. Any ideas then please don't hesitate to post them. Thank you

How about Salvador Dali?
I've always felt his work is quite spiritual.
Have a look at: Crucifixion, Christ of St. John of the Cross, The Temptation of St. Anthony and The Madonna of Port Lligat

Why not make the search engine do the work. Pump up, art and religion, religious artists, contemporary religious artists. May be put in images first. Alternatively, have a look at the work of Stanley Spencer. If you really want something different than the old masters in religion.

How about Gustave Moreau? He was a French painter, part of the Symbolist movement and he concentrated on Christian and mythological images. He particularly focused on anti-heroines like Salome.

it's interesting the relationship between Leonardo Da Vinci and religion, otherwise Giotto and Michelangelo worked with Rome's Church.

Why don't you google art + spirituality? You are likely to find Rothko as your first example, but there may be some that give you better ideas.

I suggest you Peter Breughel the Elder.
If you make an effort to analyse some of his paintings, which are full of symbols including religious, you could do it!
