Surreal art is obviously unreal while still being recognizable to we corporeal beings. This is in contrast to much of abstract art which is too unreal for us to form meaningful connection.
In case the post title makes anyone think that it is the title of the painting, Beksinski didn't title any of his drawings or paintings.
I was wondering the same thing
Does anyone have any clue of a starting point to get into making stuff in this style? Or any resources? Absolutely love how this looks
