Historic Artist - Paul Cezanne

I personally really like this artist. Although many of his paintings are of fruit and cloth still-lifes, I think the techniques he uses for painting are really great. The brush strokes especially are really impressive, and something I eventually want to try to show. I used to blur my brush strokes away with my fingers (yes, I would finger paint in high school), and sometimes I still do that, but I am starting to appreciate having brush strokes show in my paintings.
I also like his colors and the way they are used with the brush strokes.
