6 Surrealists became interested in creating paintings that were generally based on their dreams.

7 Their paintings were filled with familiar objects which were painted to look strange or mysterious.

This would help them create paintings of places out of this world.

8 Surrealists hoped their odd paintings would make people look at things in a different way and change the way they felt about the world they lived in.

9 Over the years many artists decided to make art this way, from painters to photographers and sculptors. Image: http://search.it.online.fr/BIGart/?p=105http://search.it.online.fr/BIGart/?p=105
