Kupka, definitely.
The oh-so-fleeting pieces by Amador get my permanent vote (for this round).

I like Amador's medium, but I like Kupka's art better.
What an interesting pairing! This is the first matchup in a while where I actually have to stop and think, and look up other pieces. Hang on a minute ...
Okay, Kupka. Amador is pretty (and pretty amazing sometimes) but looking at Kupka's work as a whole is more interesting to me.
Amadour, though both are great.
Did I forget to do a Google search for Kupka before? He's pretty good and I especially like his new image and some of his more representational works. Sorry beachcomber, Kupka gets my vote this round.

Oh, Kupka, definitely.
Kupka! Kupka! Kupka!
Amador Amador Amador Amador!
Here's an emailed vote for Amador.
Sure, Amador!
Amador's come-back streak falls short, and the match goes to Kupka, seven votes to six!
