About "Phantasia Dolphins Dilemma" Alvera was inspired by Salvador Dali's work. She figured that he asked a silly question and then painted a silly answer, which resulted in a fun, unrealistic fantasy of things not quite working the way they should! She spent some time playing with a kind of question and answer theme, where she asked a question and then painted the answer. This is one of about fourteen paintings still available in this category. |
