Gustav Klimt: My ALL time favorite artist!

Gustav Klimt was an Austrian Symbolist painter. He lived from the 1860's to early 1900's. He was amazing, his paintings are moving. He used gold leaf during his golden period, and I only wish I could see one of these paintings in person. I can't imagine what gold would look like in a painting as vibrant as the ones he did. So today I'm posting some of his paintings. He is the man who inspired me to pursue the arts, and keeps me inspired even today. I hope you enjoy the paintings. These are, of course, my favorites! :)



 This is my all time favorite! It's called the kiss and I will have it on my arm in the next year :)



This is one of my favorite's as well It's called Water Serpents but his is not the full painting, I could not find one on google! ;)

So, first and foremost I should thank Mr. Jorden Spencer for opening my eyes to the wonderful Sylvia Ji. I would have never known her, or at least not been aware for a few more years. :) This most talented artist stuns me everytime I look at her work. It's gorgeous and brings you in, and leads you on a journey in every painting. Please enjoy the few pics I have here. Just a couple of my favs, but believe me there are more and I have yet to have just one favorite! After you are done here, hop on over to her site, http://www.sylviaji.com/  Also, pop over to my site http://www.twoturtlesphotography.com and "like it" ! Have a great week!

She and her date were gorgeous and the other couple were beaming as well!
