I am picky about collage work, but I find something enjoyable about Denis Dubois’s strange scenes…

Chuck E. Bloom’s strange chimeric habitats and windows into other worlds have me thoroughly intrigued…

Organic, surrealistic…perhaps they are just creative dwellings planted in otherwise barren land. Perhaps they are portals.

This rather horrifying chunk of stop motion surrealism was hidden in the recesses of my mind until my wonderful friend Casey reminded me of it (thanks, Casey!)…

Dana sent me the link to artist Joe Fenton’s website. While wondering just which works to share here, upon viewing this video my socks were blown off. I had my answer. Wow. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did. An extra Thank You comes from me to Dana for finding this!

Ransom & Mitchell’s website is bound to have you turning over every rock looking for morsels. Their surreal and ofttimes macabre portraits are exquisitely staged nightmares. Perfection.

Today the She Walks Softly blog is having a hybrid moment, or two, or five. When I see Liu Xue’s sculptures, I just want to squee! They are so charming and grotesque perhaps you will squee, too.

Strap a sausage to your nose and enjoy the art of Victor Castillo. What fun! The images are so familiar, and no doubt draw on some famous and obscure visuals for inspiration.

Woeful wisps of beauty can be found in the surreal paintings of Lori Earley.

A new world to explore! Some of Artist Stephen Mackey’s surreal paintings evoke and draw inspiration from Lewis Caroll, but we want so much to explore the world of Mackey!

**May I make a daily request for the Readership to send Good Thoughts, Positive Energy, Prayers, and any means of conveying support and healing to Dana. She is struggling with getting past impossible pain on an hourly basis. One can only hope doctors are able to find a way to rewire her nervous system. THANK YOU! The Proxy Blogger**
