Who's Your Favorite Artist?

This is never a hard question for me, I actually have three… but my all time favorite artist is Leonardo Da Vinci.

It’s more about his mind than his work.  I love how he explored every area he could think of.. he pondered and sketched and dreamt up ideas.

Leonardo didn’t just sculpt and paint… he explored human anatomy, architecture, engineering.
He designed machines and gadgets.

If I could go back in time for just one day and sit and chat with anyone.. this would be the man. I’m in awe of his ability to want to learn and I love the emotion seen in ever stroke he draws.
