All good art artists look like tramps or like they've escaped from the loony bin. Having a screw loose is clearly a pre-requisite for creating awesome art.
Blake is my personal favourite.

Beethoven. In our times where the term genius is routinely thrown around this man IMO was a true genius. The fact that not only did he create some of the most beautiful music i have ever heard but that he did a lot of it whilst being profoundly deaf never ceases to amaze me.

There are many great artists; but no greatest.
Django Reinhardt, with Stephane Grappelli right behind him, is, for me, a musical epitome. His expression was sublime, perhaps perfect, and it reflected a passion, freedom and joythat is, curiously, a rarity in music. I have to include Grappelli as he flowed in such a similar vein; but, by his own admission, he did so because of the freedom given to him, and learned, from his relationship with Django.

Goya, Picasso, Michel Majerus, Jenny Holzer, Friedhard Kiekeben and Armin Mersmann have had the biggest influence on my own art. It's impossible to identify with just one as a favorate.

I wanted to name my son Django, but strangely it was vetoed by my wife.

Its very very good. Well worth a look. I love the images of ripped up cigarette packets. I really really want one. Prices start at about £500. Should one fancy flexing ones credit card
