His Paintings Represent the Landscape of My Brain

Salvador Dali, the guy who started my lasting interest in art. And thus my whole life. Here are some great paintings by him. Some famous; some you've probably never heard of before.

Allegorie de Soie

Ordinary French Loaf with Two Fried Eggs Riding Without a Plate, 1932

The Hand

Eggs On the Plate Without the Plate

Surrealist Object Gauge

The Triangular Hour

DalĂ­ Lifting the Skin of the Mediterranean Sea to Show Gala the Birth of Venus

And, if you're ever feeling depressed, google pictures of Salvador Dali, they'll cheer you up.

Love this guy!

Those in the surrealist movement had some serious issues (especially with women), but the stuff they created is far worth the weirdness.
