Salvador Dali recreation

This is a recreation of Salvador Dali's optical illusion painting entitled 'Ballerina in a Death's Head.'  The idea is so amazing to me, putting something as delicate as a ballerina and molding it into something as bold and frightening as the skull is perceived.  The shading is also so detailed and artfully placed.  I wanted to recreate this to learn more about painting techniques, and also because of how much I loved the painting.  All credit goes to Dali.  Acrylic paint used.
