Inspired by the famous you-know-who. 1958

Here's the ref: http://www.virtualdali.com/58MeditativeRose.html

I realised that my imagination is no better than my attempts at realism and so, since Dali was the first artist that I quite admired for his style, I thought I'd give my 2 cents on one of his famous pieces. I was gonna do "Persistence of Memory" but I didn't think it was even possible to duplicate.

Well, I tried.

I got lazy with the other four petals, so i just stuck with one. But I realised that there's something significant to a rose with only one petal...

Cordelia_Pink (Mar 2, 2008)
haha a tattoo?! nah... but thanks anyway! finally a comment from YOU, Starz! took u long enough. just kidding. I'm still planning on adding more stuff to it but I always seem to be stuck with ideas...

love that stem expecially
Cordelia_Pink (Mar 4, 2008)
aw I was hoping you'd keep your eyes on the rose petals! that's the BEST part ('cause it wasn't my idea anyway hehe) but thanks mooki. I figured a stem would be necessary on this.

And Axil, Sweetcell, GoldDragonfly, lori, elly, DorsY, and UnWanted: I didn't mean to ignore your comments. I should specify who I'm thanking for next time. In fact, I'm glad that some of you mentioned the other part of it besides the rose. I know how easy it is to compare it to the original, in which, I'm usually in favor of. And I was waiting for something to blurt out, "Dali!" 'cause he's the man, really, duh. And Sweetcell, glad to know there's still ppl here who remember me. :D
