Amador
Amador for me as well.
Amador
Lanyon for the relative permanence.
I'm really not feeling either of these artists, but I will vote Lanyon.
We've got twin FB votes for Amador, from Linda and Mariah.
Peter Lanyon! Color, energy, form, and some of that old St. Ives magic. Better than a walk on a beach.
Amador
Amador all the way.
Lanyon's paintings all seem sideways (tilted 90 degrees one way or the other) to me. I'm voting for Amador.

Lanyon
by email, Susan votes for Amador.
And I'll go with Lanyon for color, energy, form, and relative permanence.
The sand guy
The sand guy takes it, 11 votes to 5, and will move on to an exciting rematch against Tom Cole. Be there or be square.
