Great idea Roger, I love that painting. A nice area to explore. And yes, it looks like acrylic.

Buest Wishes!

Trying to stay ON-SUBJECT.

My aim is to produce a similar painting style to this one but using tropical images. I am in touch with this arist for help with technique.

If you look at this painting it is difficult to work out which image is opaque over or transparent under. Much more complicated than it looks. Dali was so good at it that it looks too easy.

Salvador Dali - Cannibalism of the Objects (gouache and ink, 1937)

This a horrible but fascinating image.

I has the studied skills of DaVinci with the weird mind of Dali. What a combination that would have made Leonardo Da Dali or Salvador DaVinci? Quite a thought/

A strange image.

Hi all,

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I agree with you on this painying, however I noticed something interesting. The swirls in the hair were not all random swirls. I noticed one swirl on the hairline was actually the outline of a naked lady. It was over the eytbrow and to the right. I have been searching to see if there are more images hidden within the picture, however this is the only one that I have found so far. It seams as though Salvatore had a lot of emotions within him, and it is now obvious that as a child he must have played the game 'Hide and go seek.'

GOD BLESS YOU
