One of my favorite artists is Steve Hanks.  His paintings are well done, and so beautiful!  He captures the beauty in everyday life, and everything has the sun-kissed look.  I call it Sunday morning art.

His nudes are just beautiful too, but I'll refrain from posting them here.

Bellini was on Simon Schuster's Power of Art the other day, and I was so taken by his sculptures.  It's hard to believe they are made out of marble, they look so much like flesh!

I am a romantic at heart, so I love the works of Jack Vettriano, John William Waterhouse, Vincent Van Gogh, and Bill Brauer.
