Dali-esque Liberty

No, this isn't really a Dali painting. It's a Photoshop creation from those wonderful folks over at http://www.worth1000.com/ This particular image came from a Statue of Liberty-themed competition.

If you're not familiar with the worth1000 website, give it a visit, and be amazed at what can be done to an image. This site is what motivated me to take an Art class at Mesa Community College two years ago - my first art class since 8th Grade.

As for Dali, he remains my favorite artist hands-down. I am always surprised by the number of people - even college degreed colleagues - who have never viewed any of his works. I probably have a half-dozen Dali books in my collection. If I get energetic, I'll scan some and post 'em.
