making the rounds on the internet
is a fun "quiz" asking us to name our
15 favorite artists in 15 minutes or less.
in other words, no researching/agonizing...
just a quick, from the gut list.
here's mine
(it's a bit more, shall we say, eclectic than the ones i've seen).
beatrix potter
the wyeths (i know, that's cheating!)
carl and karin larsson (that too!)
andy goldsworthy
william morris
leonardo da vinci
mary azarian
sabra field
william b. hoyt
ansel adams
trina schart hyman
yann arthus-bertrand
m c escher
frank lloyd wright
and my favorite,
mother nature
who's on your list?
I can only do top ten, as I feel much more heavily influenced by music and literature. these artists are/were pretty rad though:

Great pic and great lists. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I don't know all the people on some folks lists (including yours), so I'm going to have to check them out before I choose my 15-without-thinking list. Thanks!
