...and I'll lead right off with a ticket of Kalf, Luini, Daubigny!
Kalf, Landseer, Reynolds, Daubigny.
Strong new contenders! Nolde, Kalf, Gaudier-Brzeska, Daubigny.
Daubigny of course. Willem "Red Lobster" too. Then Luini and Reynolds. Tempted to vote against Landseer, but I think I'll hold off on the hate vote until he makes it up few more rungs.
Kalf, Landseer, Luini, and Daubigny.
Kalf, Daubigny, Landseer and Gaudier-Brzeska
I like the Kalf-Luini-Daubigny ticket.
I'll also go for the Kalf - Luini - Daubigny triumvirate and I'll add in Gaudier-Brzeska for good measure.
Susan says "Willem "Red Lobster" Kalf, Sir Edwin Landseer, Luini & Daubigny."
And that's that! Kalf and Daubigny get the week off, it's back into the fray for Luini and Landseer, and the other three are out of the game... for now.
