Emo Dolphins

Today I taught my art class about surrealism. I started by explaining what it was and then getting them all to make a guess of when they thought the surrealist movement started. The closest person got a sweet. Answers ranged from "at the dawn of time" to "2008" which was quite a wide range. I then asked them if they could name a surrealist painter and the answers were "that guy who choped off his ear" and "Dick van dyke"

Hmmm.. I quickly moved on to getting them to think of surreal things they could draw my favorite was the emo dolphin I can't wait to see that painted and on the wall.
