Just the plump nudes? I like the scenes in a lot of Baroque stuff...

I enjoy classic art regardless but for titian & rubens, plump nudes are definitely the first aspects of their work that come to mind
 
Dali has always been my favorite artist and I am lucky enough to live 30 minutes from a huge exhibit. I was also lucky enough to go to his museum in Hawaii. Here is my all time favorite which they have in the one in St. Pete, its actually a very small painting called Dream...

My favorite fantasy artist is Boris Vallejo, I have this painting in a 24k gold (plated, hehe) pocket watch. It was a gift from my mother a very long time ago for cleaning up my act when I fell into a bad streak. The watch has a dragon grasping a ruby on the outside with this painting on the inside...

That would have been amazing, like I said I am lucky to live so close to one that I can go anytime. Speaking of which if you ever make it down to Tampa again that can be a destination :cool:
