Mandalas are pretty surreal in their own right. They use them in Art Therapy because it taps into the subconscious; outside of your own control. When you make shapes as you think and choose colors, etc, the mind will play itself out in front of you. Most art is that way actually. I adapt lots of styles but a major theme of mine lately has been how Science is magic that is understood and magic is science, yet to be understood. That, to me, is very surreal in its intersectionality. What do you define as "Surreal" in your own words? Are you talking of the classical works?

Mostly works of rene margrite, this week i am exploring misplacement how you can imagine an object in a different location to create meaning. Trying to come up with list of exercises which can help me create meaning. I tried automatic writing but that turned out to be a self help exercise. I will try mandala, thanks for your advice.

Exploring Unconscious
I am inspired by work of Freud, I am sure many of you have experimented in Surreal art. Since i am just at beginning i try to keep a pen paper near my bed and draw what i could remember from my dream. Thats lot of wierd stuff i draw but unconscious is all about that. Can you please share if you have gone down the path of surreal art and what is your process for that?

Not sure what I could have done about their hands and feet. But it was fun to try light weight on this guy.
