Here are another couple of books I got for my birthday. The image above is from Dali: The Impresario of Surrealism by Jean-Louis Gaillemin. Again it is a compact book full of his work and terrific photos of Dali at various stages during his life. It's great seeing all his work together - he really was the prolific genius in my opinion. There's also plenty of biographical info about him too from cradle to grave so to speak.
To the left is the cover and the painting on the right is one of Dali's with the impossibly wonderful title: Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bumblebee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening, 1944.
The next book I am very much looking forward to reading. It's called Me Cheeta The Autobiography and it's by James Lever.
You remember seeing those old black and white Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies on TV in the wee hours of Sunday morning? No? Well a whole bunch of Tarzan movies were made in the 1930s and 1940s in Hollywood and the Cheeta of those films wrote this book (ahem). Anyway, it's supposed to be utterly hilarious and a gripping read! I'll let you know! The image on the Left is the book's cover and the one on the right is a painting by Cheeta called Study in Purple and Turquoise #6: 'Water'(2001).
I trust everyone is having a lovely restful and relaxing weekend!

Firstly, Gabbi - that wonderous blogger and super sweet fellow human being and cat owner has an interview with me and a GIVEAWAY of my artwork too. I would hot foot it over to her blog post haste as it's a terrific excuse to be entranced by her wonderful flaire with all things blog - really and truly!
