Besides the wonderful artists listed above (I'm an Art major) I've always enjoyed the painting: Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. I have no idea why.

Besides loving modern and abstract, I also love outsider art & folk art. I've been a big fan of psychedelic musc posters album art (& music!!).
Everying thing from the Texas Kid to William S. Burroughs to Andy Emmons (my best friend). Andy & I spent a couple years making art together. Though my work never got into any shows, I always cherished the time with him, I still do. I wish he didn't move to Colorado. maybe he'll move back. You can see my samples on my website and there is a link to his (though not much of his hand drawn art is on his site) and out band website:

I've always been partial to Kandinski's works, myself.

And anything done by my Aunt Carol. She's an artist too and she does abstract modern art. I love it all!

This is a quilt my auntie made:

It's called "rich man poor man". The largest shape in the center is the rich man and the smaller spaces are the poor man's interaction with the rich one. At the end the poor man is gray and sort of depleted.

Looking at a Monet makes you feel like you want to step inside the scene in the canvas.http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/monet/first/monet.coquelicots.jpg

I used to be a huge fan of Monet. He was so talented, even after he went blind, he created amazing paintings. My absolute, all-time favourite painting is Starry Night by Van Gogh.
