Dorothea Tanning

Below are paintings by the fabulous artist and poet Dorothea Tanning. She was married to Maz Ernst, and as if that wasn't enough to make her cool, she's also a phenomenal artist herself. The first picture here is my favorite of hers; Eine Kline Nachtmusik. It's so dark and beautiful and a bit unsettling; it makes it even more eerie when you play the cheerful, innocent sounding Mozart piece alongside it.
Below that is a photo of her and Max. And below THAT is one of her Birthday paintings, which seems to involve a gryphonish animal. Anyways, they're absolutely beautiful paintings and I'm on the hunt for prints!
