He did make it. It is not a painting, though, it is a lithograph.

It is not much use asking WHY painters paint. They are not bribed to, or the Mafia forces them. They paint what they want. Dalí often painted his dreams.
He started painting when he was 10 years old so maybe between 1916 and 1922
like i am dreaming, like i am in some absured ulternait univers but there is something about it that still makes my feel earth bound.
"I am painting pictures which make me die for joy, I am creating with an absolute naturalness, without the slightest aesthetic concern, I am making things that inspire me with a profound emotion and I am trying to paint them honestly."
In December 1955, Dali gave a lecture at the Sorbonne in Paris. The lecture was titled 'Phenomenological Aspects of the Paranoiac Critical Method', and was about the morphological connections he had identified amongst cauliflowers, sunflowers, rhinoceros horns and Jan Vermeer's painting, The Lacemaker. Dali arrived at the Sorbonne in a white Rolls Royce Phantom II that belonged to his friend, the French painter Georges Mathieu. Prior to the event, Mathieu had procured 500 kg of cauliflowers from Les Halles and filled the Royce Royce with the cauliflowers to make Dali's arrival a real spectacle! After the lecture, the cauliflowers were donated to a Catholic sisterhood.
He never told us.
His persistence paid off and she agreed to go out with him.Hard work and persistence will make you a success. Persistence is the key.
Salvador Dali is a fantastic narrative artist. You just need to be able to look deep and broaden your thoughts to understand the meaning behind his art. Or (if this a high school art project) just make up a bunch of crap using long word that will make your teacher fall head over heels for it. :)
