Who is your favorite artist?

General
My journals are mostly vents and commission ads and I don't do this kind of journals often enough (asking my dear watchers about their opinions etc.)
I know that most of you have that written on your page, but this is a chance to really point out who you think is awesome :3
My favorite artist? On my page it says it's wolf-nymph. I put this there loooong ago and my interests have changed from then, but I haven't changed it because I think she does deserve to be on the "favorite artist" list and because I don't really know who to put there instead... There are lots of artists who I love equally, each from different perspective... I love mondeis, who is an awesome artist and amazing person. She has the style that I strive for... I love Deyvarah's art, especially her anatomy *.* And last but not least, Balaa. I might just say that she's my favorite. I especially adore her surreal works and Apophis and Sands of creation are one of my all-time favorite arts ever... If not my two most favorite from all. I'd also like to point out AtomiccircuS from dA. Because not only is he a great artist, but he is a remarkable person. I wouldn't say that his drawings are my favorite arts ever, but his artistic journey is so inspiring. He wasn't some "wonder boy" who first picked up a pencil when he was 10 and could already draw better than artists who drew for 10 years. He loved drawing and set a difficult goal for himself when he was in his late teens and worked so very hard to be now a very well-known artist with great accomplishments. He adores art and making it and dedicates almost all of his time to it. And even though he is now way beyond us newbie artists, he makes time to help us with tips.
There are a lot more, but these are the ones that popped into my head right now.
I would also like to add that most of my favorite artists are not pros. I love seeing kinda-newbie artists who are working their asses off to be better. For me, the most inspiring artists aren't the ones that have it all figured out and post something every now and then... I love watching artists who are pushing themselves to be better, because they inspire me to do the same :3
So, what are your favorite artists? Why? Here is a chance to show them some love and say what you admire most about them :3

Jessica Willard's style and humour was always great, adorable, and sexy too, but for some reason they seem to have long ago stopped producing publically.
I really liked Terrie Smith's work back in the day too, the first and best furry comics I ever loved were done by them!
Today? Well the actual way people usually make art has even changed, and there are so many! It's very hard to say. Some favourites currently include, but are far from limited to, Ecmajor, Cheepard, Kenket, silverfox5213, Zaush, Ruki, Hyhlion...ehhh I could go on all day. :^
I'm not so much into adult art, but I do know most of the artists you listed. It's great to see such a variety of styles among your favorite artists - I have my favorites too limited based on what style I'm interested atm... :/
So many more out there, but those are some I like.
Paul Kidby on the other side comes over my with my affection to terry Pratchetts Discworld Novels. He do the Discworld Calendars and some Artbook about this universe and they are nothing but BRILLIANT!!!
The thing is I'm not interested in highly realistic pics, in my mind we have this invention named Photograph so its just huge work for nothing... Don't get this wrong I give some respect to all that brilliant artists out there but there are only a few that draw a pic and you can say from first sight: its one of this artists works. I just like personal art, even if its not perfect it has its own style and that makes it unique!
