Surrealism...

Surrealism...the only form of imagery that makes me actually see anything when I read it.  Why does no one else like it?  I get that its a little odd at first to read, but it makes everything much more lively to describe.  Think about it from the authors point of view; would you rather describe something in plain detail, or make everything about it pop and be fascinating?  When someone looks at surrealist paintings or drawings, possibly even sculptures, it makes them think.  It makes them decide what exactly is being represented.  That is the quality I find enjoyable about surrealism.  The reader or the viewer has complete control over how they see the object in its surrealist state.
