Apart from Michel Granger (nothing beats him, doh), what other artwork or painter/visual artist do you like. and why?

Myself, I like the work of Storm Thorgerson a lot, he has worked on quite a few of Alan Parsons' albums, specially the later ones. His artwork for "Try Anything Once" is simply genious!

A few pics:

One of my favourite cover arts is Depeche Mode's "A Broken Frame", but there are so many.
