Portrait

I wasn't going to post anything until I finished the post on dreams I'm working on but I liked the result I got.

Who Should Paint You: Salvador Dali

You're a complex, intense creature who displays many layers.
There's no way a traditional portrait could ever capture you!


I've never given consideration to getting a portrait done but I think it would be cool to have it done by Dali. Just the art geek in me:)

Ahhh you like Dali. He is my favorite. When I was in college he decorated my walls. When I bought my first home, however, his paintings didn't quite fit in. So they now decorate the walls in my brother's college apartment. If I had anyone paint my portrait, would probably be Johannes Vermeer. He did "Girl with a Pearl Earring".
I had the pleasure of veiwing a Dali displayed in DC. As soon as I walked upon it, I knew who painted it. It was the most amazing painting I ever saw.

My kind of respondent. Pays compliments and adds to the conversation. I never thought anyone would respond to this one:)

I took a look at "Girl with a Pearl Earring". It's an amazing piece. It feels like the girl in the painting is really alive. I don't remember studying Vermeer in art history classes. Thank you for turning me on to such an excellent artist.
