Not much art discussion on here so I thought I'd try and change that.
Who is your favourite artist/designer, everybody draws inspiration from different things, what are yours?
My latest work has been inspired by Ville Kansanen and Holly Bynoe. I think that my favourite artist is Dave McKean, his dustcovers are amazing and very original, I love his collage/dark/surreal/grunge style.
Jeff Soto
I wouldn't have known him from his name but I definately recognise his work.
Dali
I knew he would be mentioned. Misha Gordin reminds me of Dali, they're not exactly the same but some of Dalis style shows through his photography.

Really reminds me of a magazine I used to buy, Imagine FX, it was digital fantasy/sci-fi image, the images on their gallery are great, the ones set in the forest are cool.

I recognise these two names from the art forum.
LaserKarl rocks...
But I'll also call Adam phillips work, art..
My favourites :P
I'm A newbie when it comes to artists. I studied Andy Warhol for my GCSE art project.. but saying you like Andy Warhol is like someone liking French Fancies, it's default :).
My favorite artist on NG is gunth. I like his pictures where there sort of reflected colours. I can't explain that too well, so go check out his Deviant art page.

Wow, just did an NG search for him, he's got some really nice work, looks like its done in painter which is even more impressive as I find that program to be the devil.

Yeah his stuffs great, looked at it a few months ago for college. Seems like a lot of people study him for GCSE and A-level.

That just proves how much you like his work, I say he uses it and that its the devil, you ask where I can get it from, lol.

Nah, i mainly paint in Photoshop or OpenCanvas, or a combination of them both. I've tried painter though, and it has some really niuce features.
Artrage is a nice tip for a painting-program btw, its the most realistic software i've laid my eyes on.
Thanks everyone that said im the best one out there, to bad i'm gonna have to say youre all wrong :P
Heres a bunch of links to a pair favourite artist:
Hes so fucking awesome.. And i dont even know his name!
and
Michael Hussar, also unbelivable. these are just 2 of my favs though, theres a lot of people thats even better.

I've never seen work made in OpenCanvas, but I really wouldn't have thought it was photoshop.

I love that style of dark circus/theatre imagery! I'm always looking out for artists of that style. I really wanna try and take some photos of that kind of thing, but getting the right props is very difficult. But I'm definately bookmarking that page!
nobody said me? that makes me sad D:
but really, i can't really rate my favorite artists on NG, (although i should mention i really like ShirtTurtles work :D) but i found this russain dudes site... Jacek Yerka... his paintings are amazing. linkage.

Same as what I thought, he has the surreal look to his work to, similar to the original 1920s artists, unlike the dark surrealism of Micheal Hussar that LaserKarl just posted. Surrealism is a very wide catergory really.
