Who is your favorite oil or acrylic artist?

I need to replicate an oil or acylic art piece for a class assignment (i know not too creative). Im kinda stumped with any ideas. I would be deeply grateful for any suggestions.





If you have a favorite oil or acrylic artist, and even better a specific work, please let me know about it so I can check it out.

It is not about creativity, it is about exploring ways to paint.





I always tell my students to reproduce a painting they like. When asked I tell them to do a painting by Magritte:

His paintings are very clear and allow you to copy it almost perfectly, even from a small photograph.





Specially this one is a fav because of its title:


';No copying';

It is pretty easy to reproduce (no kidding) and will astound everybody. Use transfere paper and a lifesize xerox to get it on a canvas.





Usually they enjoy it more than a Tintoretto, Mondriaan or Keith Haring.
