Pisarro, by far. And that's not because I dislike the other guy.

ReplyDeletePatinier!
ReplyDeletePatinier for me.
ReplyDeleteI like the first guy, especially the final one of his paintings shown. You got three ladies all over this guy, but he looks a little scared. Demon woman and little monkey demon seem to be trying to warn him. That painting rules.
ReplyDeletePatenier beat Picasso? ...really? That's...that's....huh. Well...okay. Go big or stay home: I guess I'll say Patenier here. PATENIER ALL THE WAY!
ReplyDeleteHey, I like Patinier too. Maybe a little less, since he beat up Picasso. Pissarro for me!
ReplyDeleteSusan votes for Pissaro

ReplyDeleteI'm going to go with Pissaro, but same as Morgan -- not because I don't like the first guy. Patenier's really grown on me.
ReplyDeleteOoh, tough contest. I really really like Pissarro, but Patenier has some of that old je ne sais quoi going on, so I'll swing his way.
ReplyDeleteThis one goes down to the final vote, and Candida makes it Patenier, six votes to five.
