Famous Artists

Artist's Perspective

Writings by a couple dozen famous artists either from their letters, interviews, and their own writings. Read what Cezanne, Cassatt, da Vinci, Matisse, O'Keefe, Pollock, and Van Gogh had to say about their art.

Chuck Jones:

Obviously if you saw "Revenging Angel" you know that Chuck Jones has had an impact on even the folks at Farscape. Visit one of the fathers of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Elmer Fudd. And when you are done there, go on over to the The Hall of Artists to read a lengthy interview with Chuck Jones about his career and work.

H. R. Giger:

The official web site of the artist who brought you the Alien series of movies. You can find some interesting short articles about his work by different people like Timothy Leary and Deborah Harry. Really. I'm not kidding. While you are there, be sure to order yourself a snowboard and one of his chairs. Those chairs make the Aurora Chair look like a LazyBoy.
