Yeah. His work has a lot of detail and looks pretty cool.

Painting -
Tom Thomson, AY Jackson, FH Varley and Lawren Harris. Thomson inspired Canada's Group of Seven and Jackson, Varley & Harris were members.
Salvador Dali and Van Gogh are my favorite masters.
Sculpture-
Having been curator at a Museum dedicated to his work, I'm partial to Robert Tait McKenzie. He sculpted early in the 20th century, mostly of athletes. He was a doctor by training and started using sculpture to illustrate anatomy and blossomed from there. He also invented modern physiotherapy & cosmetic surgery for battle injuries. Busy guy.
Sure is an expesive hobby. McKenzie isn't in the popular conscience these days, but our collection was still worth a huge amount of $$$.
I was at an auction yesterday and almost shit when the Dali's came up.... started the bidding at $2800 for a VERY small piece. It was nice, but Dayum.
That's not bad. Depending on the piece, I'd rock it. McKenzie isn't well known, but we still had $20,000 18" bronzes, and I've seen Varley sketches start at $4000 min here.
