Curly Girl's Dali tray

Curly Girl had to do a report on a major artist. She choose Dali from the list....not because he was her favorite...but because he hadn't been picked!

We searched some of his works and although most were of his surrelistic period, she found one she loved of these butterflies....


Here is her tray.....


In researching Dali, we both learned lots of really interesting things about the man and his art. The main thing she learned in studying his method is that he liked to surprise the eye by reversing shadows...you can see how the shadow is lighter in the corner and gradually gets darker...
