Welcome To My Online Gallery
Hi, my name is Michael Bridges and this site will feature my original surreal art. Being a surrealist means you think outside the box. What most artists might paint as a pretty flower the surrealist will paint as a flower with a face. or a flower with teeth or a flower growing out of a hand.
Surrealism comes from deep inside the mind. It's the need to make reality into something different. I like to call this unreal realism.
The image to the right is a book written by Robert Hill, titled "One Second Before Awakening". The cover features one of my paintings (you can see the original painting here). I have read through some of the book and it is a very interested and original concept.
Right from the very first paragraph it draws you in and makes you want to find out what is going on and what will happen next. What is really interesting is the book is based on on the art of Salvador Dali.
If you would like to get your hands on this book or find out more about it it is available for download at Smashwords. You will also find more books by Robert there as well. The book is also available in paperback at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
