I missed doing the artist thread and spamming the feed with cool pictures.

Howard Pyle. 'When the World was Young.'
I'm a sucker for great romance paintings. There's a razor-thin line between honest or just theatrical for any subject, but most romance pictures in particular fall on the wrong side into schmalz. So, I love seeing it done well.

N.C. Wyeth. 'Blind Pew'
Btw, this piece is 1) Enormous, and 2) nowhere near this yellow, especially where the underpainting shows. I haven't seen a good photo of it online, but it's much moodier and bluer.
