  1. I like all of the artists and works you show too!
    Are we what we love? Do we love what we "are"?
    Both? What we love help us to grow up and progress... Art is question... and answers...

  2. Hokusai, Modigliani, de Hooch... and I like Otli's questions too. Are we what we love? I will be pondering that ...

  4. Also love all of your chosen ones! And if we are what we love, I might be a very complex person, because my taste in arts is very complex, too. I don't know why a piece of art affects me, and in fact I'm not interested in why, as long as it does!

  12. I like your "collection" of figurative painters, especially Hopper and Munch - I saw a few Munches at the Kunsthal in Rotterdam just yesterday.
