Masaccio, Masaccio (1401-1428) was the first artist to use true lighting, colour, perspective all before the age of 27. Leonardo described his works as perfect, and Delacroix called him the first great painter. Masaccio paved the way for the renaissance, so without Masaccio, Leonardo Raphael, Michelangelo would have no basis to work from. Michelangelo's figure of St Peter in the Sistine Chapel come from Masaccio's in the Brancacci chapel.

Vincent Van Gogh. Fascinating life, fascinating and very talented art. Don McClean's song: Starry Starry Night is a tribute to the life and times of Vincent Van Gogh.

My favorite contemporary artist is Dana Levin. She is one of the artists leading the resurgance of interest in Classical Realism, Representational Art, and Academic Art. Her skills span portraits, florals, interiors, and figures.

I just love the Pre-Raphaelites, my favourites are John Everett Millais and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The sensual paintings they made are just wonderful. Especially Rossetti's painting Beata Beatrix which he painted after his wife Lizzi died.
