ARTIST: Must be famous (eg information can be obtained readily) and must have particular style of painting, name your suggestions and I will decide!!

  3. There is an artist named Richard Haas who is absolutely amazing. He dubbed as an archtectural muralist. He paints mammoth murals are of contemporary cityscapes...its hard to describe...just look him up...

  4. The best known example would be Italian painter Giorigio de Chirico's depictions in a Surrealist styleof the silent facades of buildings, courtyards and piazzas.

    American painter Charles Sheeler painted buildings also decks of boats in style known as Precionism I- influenced strongly by Cubism and Futurism, its main themes included industrialization and the modernization of the American landscape, which were depicted in precise, sharply defined, geometrical forms.http://www.artchive.com/artchive/S/sheel... http://www.artchive.com/artchive/S/sheel...
