Jaques Louis David



Very historical guy.

I don't remember about him that much, but that painting of Marat is just engraved in my head.

Jackie Chan


He is the director of many of his movies.

Many of which I love.

My mom would say things like how Jackie Chan isn't even that good looking but he beat all other talented and good looking actors by just working very very hard.

I mean, look at his movies... I'm surprised his still not dead...

Andy Warhol


I don't like Andy Warhol.

I don't get Pop Art!!!

Brian Lee O'Malley


I read good reviews about this so I wanted to try it

but there was only second volume at the library when I went.

So I read that but it was quite boring.

Well, I didn't understand the story.

It's pretty over the top, so I didn't understand the gag.

But later I did.

They have a movie of this. It's showing in Commons theatre next week.

Bob Ross


I'm afraid everybody would know him.

But surprisingly, a lot of young kids these days don't know this guy.

Very sad.


He is famous in Korea too. So even I know him :D

I heard he was in Vietnam War. It was so horrible to him, that he started to paint.

Atleast thats what I heard.

Imhotep


I wrote a paper about this guy when I was in middle school

and ever since then was interested in him.

He was an architect, doctor, chancellor, and other things.

He built some of the first step pyramids.

It makes me wonder how one man can do so many jobs and do so well in it.

In that age when algebra was the newest technology,

he managed to make out calculations to build a pyramid.

Duchamp



As people around me talk about found art and Dadaism,

they kept reminding me of Duchamp.

It would be nice to study his works before I make some of my own found art.
