who is your "art hero"?

Salvador Dali
Probably my favorite artist of all time. It was rumored he took lsd when he painted but something interesting to note is that he took most of his paintings from his dreams. Because most of us forget about our dreams when we wake up, he held a key when he slept and when he fell asleep, the key would drop. He would hear the key and paint what he saw in his dream.

Rene Magritte He is much like Dali but unique in his own way. If you can't tell, I like abstracts

hmm, I didn't know about that with the key. When I want to remember dreams I just do it the common hard way, trying to remember and hope for the best. I might try something like that though, be cool if it works.
 
Hugh Syme - album cover art, Sid Mead - futurist design, Jim Burns - sci-fi/fantasy art, Boris - boob and thigh master, Robert Lenkiewicz - skin tones
