My grandmother was a surrealist painter. The first painting that comes to mind is one she did of a couple, he in a tux and she in a long flowing gown. They're meeting someplace that looks like the moon, and instead of heads on their bodies, he has a rose and she has a butterfly. I was thinking about creating an image with flowers as eyes, like embedded blossoms. Then I wondered what it would look like if the eye sockets themselves were blossom shaped. Here's what came out. It's kind of Fantastic Planet.
