Salvador Dali painted surreal images; most of them were from dreams. He was born in Spain in 1904. He wanted to be the center of attention for the most part. He showed up to an art exhibit with flies glued to his face. Dali's paintings had an element of reality along with the surreal.

I think Dali was an interesting person if he had dead flies on him for an art exhibit. That's just not very attractive.

Dali had many good pieces of art during his lifetime. He was a surrealist painter. He always based his painting on dreams. The weirdest thing I remember about him, was when he went in public with flies glued to his face. I remember one of his painting with the paintings that appears to be melted.

I think Dali was a weird person, but he definately had some amazing works. I think his works are really neat because they all come from dreams, so they are interesting.

Ansel Adams was 14 teen years old when he first started photography.
His favorite national park he enjoyed photograping was Yosmite.In his work,Yomite used only black and white.The element Adams emphasized in his artwork was light. Ansel believed the key to his artwork was visualization

I never knew how photography could be art until Mr. Omaley showed me. Ansel had to wait many days until he could get a perfect picture. I never knew the time and patients it took to just take a picture
