I need some good landscape artist that preferably do urban scenes that i can use in my art work because im struggling to find some i like. Some with interesting colour choices and techniques would be good and some that arn’t to hard to copy. Thanks

You could perhaps have a look at L.S.Lowry he painted many urban scenes. He only used five colours they were Flake white, Black, Prussian blue, Vermillion, and Yellow ochre – I think I’ve got that right?
He used a predominantly rich impasto style. Which seemed to suit the subjects he painted.
He painted parts of industrial Lancashire for which he is usually remembered. He also did more conventional landscapes and town scenes, particularly Berwick upon Tweed. Hope this helps.
Regards Lawrence.
