Salvador Dalí
Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) was one of the most notable artists of the 20th century. His bold spirit and uncanny ideas led him to create all kinds of art that represented the Surrealist movement.
Young artists will kick off this art box by learning about Dalí's early life, his rise to fame, and the quirks of his original style. Then they’ll jump into the world of Surrealism and create their own art pieces! First up are two reproductions of Dalí paintings. Kids will use printmaking and gradient techniques as they work. Then they’ll try their hand at Dalí's long-legged animal technique to draw birds and elephants. The box wraps up with a clay diorama of Dalí's famous melting clocks.
