Salvador Dali caricature

I love Dali. (No, I don't!) (Yes, I do! )
Yes, I do like Dali. Especially his paintings. So much so that I went on a trip to Spain with my wife to Portlligat (in Cadaqués) where he lived, and to Figueres, where the Dali museum is located. That was an exciting journey that year!
But I also think he's a really weird guy, though...

I have conflicting feelings for Dali. I find much of his work overwhelmingly beautiful. But he was a weird cutie.
On the one hand extremely eccentric and funny, on the other hand cool, often shocking and aggressive.

Sometimes caricatures succeed on the first attempt, but sometimes it is very difficult. It was not easy with Dali. It was try-and-retry. Here you can see some of my attempts.
I also couldn't quite decide HOW I wanted to present him.

At one point nothing even worked anymore! Fatigue?
Time to stop and do something completely different! Hopefully things will get better later...

And then you suddenly make something that makes you think, "Okay, I can get on with that!"

Then I made some photocopies that I could tinker with until I completely liked it. Here I tried different clothes. And a smaller nose!

And that's how I ended up doing it, as you can see.
