Dali's principal subjects in his early work,from 1910 to 1921,were landscapes and portaits,from which he readily found sitters.The most striking thing about this early phase and one which places Dali's work in stark contrast to the early ork of other painters is that,far from being dark and desolare,his paintings were bright and luminous.
He moved on from Impressionism to Pointillism, from Pointillism to Fauvism,exuberantly and even obsessively painting everything he could see in Cadaques or Portdogue,the olive groves and fishermen and boats.He painted portraits of his own family,th Pichots,his cousin Montserrat,his grandmother and himself.Fot this last he used a finely nuanced palette of what he called "voluptuous colours,"applied in thick pastose.
