Salvador Dali


Even if one doesn't know the name of the artist, few people would nor recognize Salavdor Dali's work when they see the second picture posted below. The melting clocks have become very iconic, if disturbing at times. When looking at these paintings I'm almost reminded of pictures and scenes in children's story books with the way they are colored. However, it is like story book and fairy tales gone wrong. Each painting is pretty photo realistic, which makes the surreal content even more jarring.
