You Favorite Art Style?

aajohnny

Hey,
I am kind of taking a survey, but I am also curious as to what your favorite art styles are?

My favorite is Steam Punk
Unfortunately there isn't much steam punk art, or at least much that I know of, but any piece of art I see that is steam punk is just creative and unique.

What are your favorite Art Styles?

Pinups here dawg. Lately i've been gravitating alot towards very colorful styles aswell.

Vrav

Impressionism!

As for steampunk, I don't know if it's a style as much as a genre of content. If you mean stuff that looks grungy, kind of gritty with the occasional brassy shine, then yeah, I love that stuff too. But I think it's more of a genre! Semantics, pftt.

I'm a sucker for Cyberpunk and SciFi! (Whether if it's a genre instead of "Art Style", probably, but you get the point)

i doubt that sci fi or steampunk are styles.
seconded for impressionism, also magical realism.

~ ^ This.

Steampunk/Cyberpunk aren't Art styles. They are just subjects. That's like saying 'My favourite artsyle is green Aliens'.

leslievdb

classisism

I'm kind of digging Hellenistic and Baroque for the time being. I've got statues and realism on the mind

I really like "boundary art" as one of my art teachers called it, its current movement of art thats a mix of abstract and representational, kind of like a lot of concept art.

aajohnny

Oh well then this can expand to Art Subjects then too.

Mike Yevin

id have to say any form of minimalism

makecg

favorite art...

Anime, Horror, Blood. Mixed.

BadgerBaiter

Adore Caravaggio's work, so I guess that is almost Baroque.

Really loving the Art Deco movement as well, and to a lesser extent , Nouveau.

Burger Ninja

Symbolism

arshlevon

Situationism

If it was made by an Arenanet artist, I'll probably like it. Is there anyway to describe that style?

Full of AWESOME

If you mean the concept artist they get a lot of work from, http://www.kekaiart.com/ ... how is that style defined? Digital concept art, high detail but with clever composition omission... I don't know.

It's kind of a commercial style, which reminds me of Norman Rockwell, who is also awesome.

Stuff that is loose. Rough. But Beautiful. And lifelike. Like this:

I mean artists in plural. Just about everybody who's gone through that company has a pretty awesome body of work.

Richard Anderson, Daniel Dociu, Horia Dociu, Mathew Barret, Jaime Jones, and Kekai Kotaki just to name my favorites. They all have unique styles, but just Anet's in general.

I enjoy so many art styles I can't put one on top as my favorite.

I can tell you what I don't like, though:
Stupid, sexual Pinups
Anything remotely like Lady Gaga
Modern art (^^she's like the personification of it^^)
Super anime
furry art (98% of it)
fan art that is drawn in the own person's style rather than the original (usually because it's badly done)
And overly emo, goth, punk stuff. Like beyond kinky edward scissorhands crap.


OTHERWISE I LOVE IT ALL!

POFFINGTON

If we are talking about fine artists then, super realism is my thing.


like Mr. David Kassan here


If we are talking about concept art, then EVERYTHING...but
Barontieri is my fav


Also though, I am completley obsessed with traditional tattoo art, having almost finished my sleeve.
Sarah Schor is awesome

but thats only if you are into that sort of thing :P

Egon Schiele
Francis Bacon
Peter Doig

its not what you see now that will be the problem.. its what you see in the dark late at night..

slipsius

two of my favourite pieces....

the hall of bulls, one of the first cave arts that had shading.


and

the four horsemen of the apocalypse, which alot of people dont realize is a wood carving. not a painting/drawing





besides that... I prefer new age digital painting fantasy realism

aajohnny

Abstract art is just my favorite, good for desktop wallpaper too I especially love this style of abstract:

hah you should watch the cremaster cycle, I'm pretty sure that's where she got all her material

I personally like stuff that is simple and straight up communicates it's message. minimalism, impressionism etc.

Good tastes, sir!

I also love stuff with a very graphic design-y look to it. Not sure what the style is called. Works out great though, my girlfriend paints in this style. So my apartment is covered in it!





Oh! Also, art nouveau! Love that stuff. Especially in architecture and decor.
