Dali,

Peter Howson - Does wonderful grotesques and his paintings are usually quite brutal...

I actually have a print of this (Patriots) at home.

and..

Jack Vettriano - you might like him Abs his stuff has a sort of 1940's European Advertising or film Noir feel about it.

I don't like Dali's work but find the man quite interesting and i enjoy Vettriano's paintings.

I also like Edward Hopper.
