See, You Don't Have to Wear Black, or All Black, to be Goth!

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

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

My Toast is Cold

And as you know, I hate that. So instead of eating it while watching Spongebob Squarepants as I should be, I'll tell you about this picture.

Called Girl With Butterfly Tea, its by an artist Madelaine. Her art is "dramatic and haunting" as her etsy shop states. She is 17 years old, a very talented teenager. You can find her shop here. Meanwhile, here are some of her prints!

The Ghost's Letter

The Fall

Ever After

I Wonder How That Would Taste

Like bubble gum? Or cotton candy?

the Industrial Surrealism of Jeffery Scott

There are others, but my favorite is the Sagitarian (above; well, obviously).

I still don't know what that machine on the table is!

There is an interview with the genius here. Go to it whether you like it or not and read the profound-ness of it!!!!

Gelatinous

Behold...the blobfish.

Isn't it cute? :D

Derived from Wikipedia article:
"The blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus)[1] is a fish that inhabits the deep waters off the coasts of Australia and Tasmania.[2] Due to the inaccessibility of its habitat, it is rarely seen by humans.
Blobfish are found at depths where the pressure is several dozens of times higher than at sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient. To remain buoyant, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. The relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats by in front of it. It is often caught by bottom trawling with nets.."
