The assignment was to create a card-deck featuring a famous person. Being a painter myself and having copied hundreds of paintings by Old Master, I can appreciate Dali's techniques to its fullest. His attention to detail, patience, purity of color and ability to infuse the object with life (if he so chooses) are exceptionally brilliant. The clouds and watches are a detail of his paintings.

The back of the Cards represent the three Dimensions of Time, Space and Cherries.
Cherries, because when you like something it changes Time and Space.

Dali wasn't only a prolific painter but writer, illustrator, interior decorator and sculptor. He collaborated on films, designed jewelry, sets and costumes for operas, plazas, and even furniture.
He was the perfect choice for the 'Jack-of-all-Arts'.
I added a magic wand with a Russian rooftop to symbolize his Russian wife and muse, Gala.
The center of the Ace is a detail of his painting: Cosmic Contemplation (1951)
