I'm fortunate to live near St. Pete, Florida, where I can enjoy the Dali Museum which houses a huge permanent collection of Dali works.

Like many, I originally didn't want to go to the museum as I thought I wouldn't like it enough to make the effort. How wrong I was.

Without going into detail, I spent hours looking at and studying his masterpieces. I can't wait to go back. Some of his paintings play tricks on the eyes. Everything he did was fascinating.

I urge everyone to cast aside all preconceptions of Salvador Dali. If you get to St. Pete, do yourself a favor and go to the museum. You will thank me profusely for the recommendation.

There was more to the genius, Dali, than at first meets the eye.

There are several excellent books on the artist Dali's profound vision.
