When it comes to the strange and the wonderful, one great name always comes to mind, Salvador Dali. Salvador Dali was one of the great painters of the 20th centuary. He was a man who saw the world in a very different way. Some say that he had a twisted mind, but most just see the wonder and imagination that went into his work. The Great Salvador Dali 1904-1989 ![]() Click here to join PADDY'S IN SPACE |

Tiare, i will have to check out this guy Antoni Gaudi. The name rings a bell alright. The link to the dali-galery i allready had it bookmarked. I think you may be fermilar with this one from Dali....... ![]() This particular picture is what drew me to Dali's work in the first place. I first saw this picture when i was about 15. It captures all that is great about Dali's work. I spent hours as a teenager studying this picture. There is a lott going on in it. Click here to join PADDY'S IN SPACE |

Check out the 3D illusions section on Julian Beever's pavement drawings and for some weird effects on the eye, the later works of M.C. Escher, from '41 onwards, particularly Relativity, |
