"Waiting for the Crew" Horacio Cardozo

 

[Mighty Quinn]

One of hundreds of life-size terracotta statuary discovered in central Nigeria, now called the Nok culture, dating to about 500-200 BCE. This has to be the most beautiful sculpture I've ever seen.

Salvador Dali - “Family of Marsupial Centaurs” (1940)

Francis Bacon - Head IV (1949)

For the record, I prefer abstract over realism, but art is art.

Very nice, Daddy Ra. It's funny...I was actually just looking at pics to find a new Wonder Woman avi (I got tired of the old one) for my Skype profile. lol

Since you're looking for a new Skype Avi here are a couple more pictures more along the traditional comic book art style you might consider.
