Surreal Paintings that hide a lot of Symbolism

Art that have a lot of parts that at first view, do not appear to belong in the same painting.
There are a lot of different kinds Surreal Art, some of it is funny, some is a play on words and some have seemingly darker set-ups.  Mike Davis has given all of the images below titles, that said, I don't think that they explain everything that is going on in the painting or in the mind of the artist.  Because it is not spelled out, it gives us, the viewers, a chance to interpret the paintings using our own life experiences.  Have a really good and close look at these paintings and see what they tell you.  you can use the comment section at the end of the post if you want to share them with us.  If you want to see more surreal post Click the "Surreal Art" link above this post.
