Gustav Klimt

Every time i read his name i only thought of the few times i glimpsed at that poster on Ms. Maguire's wall during art history. Until today i was only familiar with "The Kiss", then i googled his name and came across this website: iKlimt . I looked through the work and fell in love with it. Very daring. I dont know why but many of the painters i like seem to have worked during the early 1900's, like J. W. Waterhouse and Henry Darger. But Klimt is a whole different story, and im so glad i remembered him.
Water Sprites (1894) Water Snakes I (1904-1907)

He's my favorite artist of all time. His art is so unique especially for the time period. He's very creative.
