Dali Created Destino

My Arts teacher discussed another impressive artist in class today. He discussed to us the artist’s biography, he showed to us samples of his works and truly the artist is still astounding even in present times. His name is Salvador Domingo Felipe Jacinto Dali I Domeneech. Salvador Dali, for short.

Salvador Dali worshipped surrealism. He was a Spanish Catalan painter born in Figueres. He was best known for the strange images in his surrealist works. He was a skilled draftsman. His skills were influence by the Renaissance masters. It can also be noted that The Persistence of Memory as his best-known work. Despite his being a flamboyant exhibitionist with odd traits, he was, without a doubt, a talented worker. He was able to produce more than 1,500 paintings and illustrations in books and lithographs. He also made a name on the film industry. In fact, he was responsible for the short Disney cartoon “Destino.”
