i never got into sureal art until 2 years ago. but since then the work of many surreal artist has influenced my work and the way i approach my work. One of my favorite surreal artist is Salvador Dali. he uses many recurring themes in his work, such as time, and memory and expresses his feelings and concepts toward these two themes by using metaphorical symbols and objects to represent his thoughts. he also uses images and imagery that become optical illusions and have been reproduced by many artist for movie posters, paintings and photographs. his style interests me most as well as his ability to tell a story or give a message in a single image.
