I don't know if I have a favourite but I really like Edward Hopper.

This painting really resonates with me as I'm sure it has many people.

 

Thomas Cole:

Leonid Afremov is a bit of a favorite as well:

 

I also like some of Salvador Dali's stuff as well. Leonid Afremov is a bit of a favorite of mine, but I'm not sure that he's necessarily traditional and I've already posted a load of his paintings elsewhere, so I'll refrain.

When I say tradition I am speaking of the mere act of painting on canvas. So it could go from pre-renaissance to today. I also enjoy H.R. Giger and the modern Japanese painter Murakami. I was think of posting them but Magritte has always been #1 for me.

What are your artists MBTI?

 

I would have to say Magritte is one of my favorites if not my favorite! I'm also a big fan of Frida Kahlo's work.
I also like Kandinsky, Dalí, Miró... @gatsby I also love Afremov's work!
And for the record, I have an Edward Hopper calendar on my wall at the moment. ^_^

 

Caspar David Friedrich.

@gatsby Yes they are! I have a hard time describing how art makes me feel, but the colors are so lovely, I like the style and a lot of his paintings...like I said, I'm not good at explaining, but they resonate with me. I really enjoy his paintings.

 

Does anybody know of any Famous ISFP painters. I am actually trying to compare an contrast the archetype "the Artist" with others. I hear Picasso is ISFP. Bob Ross is ISFP. The way I can imagine the Contrast in artistic cognitive functions Ne vs. Se is equivalent to these paintings.

My favourite is Vincent van Gogh -

Starry Night

Closely followed by Modigliani (sorry, I got carried away) -

and Paul Gauguin -

It seems I like the tragic artists. They painted with no thought for commercial success and lived and died in poverty. Interestingly, the most expensive van Gogh painting sold for over $71m, a Modigliani nude sold in 2010 for $68.9m and Gauguin's paintings are thought to be worth as much as $39.2m
