Agostino Arrivabene

This guy is seriously doing it for me. I'm subscribed to his Flickr stream, and his paintings are steadily blowing my mind. One of the most exciting contemporary painters I've seen in a long time. Feast.

Elliott Daingerfield

No Rodney jokes. I was previously unaware of this American symbolist's work, but he was apparently a danger in his field at the turn of the century. I actually stumbled upon his work looking for paintings by Albert Pinkham Ryder. A North Carolina native, it is inspiring that such mythic work can come from the American South, and that timelessness can also be "placeless."
