Bruegel
I'm taking an art history class this semester and I really like it! After finishing the Northern Renaissance painters, I am a huge Bruegel fan, especially his winter scenes! He is credited as the first person to paint landscapes as the main focus of the painting, rather than just a backdrop for an event or human subject.

These are really cool paintings, Mark (no pun intended). Art is always facinating to me mainly because I feel it's the artists' own interpretation of reality. I really like impressionism, especially Claude Monet. Glad you are enjoying your class.
