Van Gogh
Picasso

The Figure
John Singer Sargent
Rembrandt
Rubens - because I love women

American contemporaries
Edward Hopper
Georgia O'Keeffe
Wayne Theibaud - SF Pop artist known for his confections

Relative Unknowns but personal influences

Skip Liepke
Bernie Fuchs

I agree...
Three is oh so difficult... Dan Flavin, Edward Keinholz, and Willem de Kooning are my favorites right now. That'll change tomorrow.
