Your turn. Show me what you love.
Anything good from the Renaissance masters. Also Julie Bell, Boris Vallejo, and Frank Frazetta.
Thanks. I'd forgotten who Julie Bell was and had to look her up.

I think you'd be a fan of The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Though, for my taste, their work is often either a little too sweet or caters a bit too much to the male gaze, they have some incredible pieces. One of my favorites is Frederic Leighton's Flaming June.

In many ways, the composition is flawless.

I saw it once as like a meme for people with Ehlers danlos syndrome being comfortable in weird positions lol.
