okay. 2 more pics that I really like. There are some pieces of work that Dali has done that I really enjoy. If you like his work (and happen to be in the Tampa area) there is a Dali museum in St. Pete, Fl that is fantastic. These 2 pieces are there.

The one is just a sketch for a few of his other full paintings. I believe he did 4 variations of the painting. It is the view of Christ on the cross from above. I have a print of this hanging in my bedroom.

The 2nd is called "The discovery of America by Christopher Columbus" and completely blew me away when I saw it. The painting is 10 feet tall. Columbus is almost life sized. There is more detail in this painting than I would care to describe. It's amazing, though.
