Any number of Alberto Vargas images but I’d probably get in trouble if I tried to post some of them here.
+1 for Roy Lichtenstein too, I saw Whaam! at the Tate Liverpool last after being desperate to see it in the flesh for decades and I wasn’t disappointed.
Also
JMW Turner. A small reporduction doesn’t do it justice. Much like Whaam! to be honest.

Usually id just post a rothko and go “end of thread” but i see others have beat me to it so i’ll post Sean Scully , there was a very interesting program on iplayer here regarding his work
I think i’ll try and recreate one of his horizontal paintings on my fireplace wall, they look easy……
@eddiebaby – cheers – it isn’t self-taught BTW – they do extra-curricular art classes so it is guided teaching. They do both love art though which is great, 🙂
