Salvador Dali was born on May 11, 1904 in the town of Figueres, Spain. He was the son of a prosperous attorney, and spent his childhood in Figueres and at the family's summer home in the coastal fishing village of Cadaques. At an early age, he showed a talent and love for drawing. His father encouraged him by giving him imitations of classical art. His first studio was built for him by his parents and was located in Cadaques. Before he was ten, he had already completed two impressive oil paintings. After his elementary training at the College of "los Hermanos de la Doctrina Cristiana" (in Figueres) he attended the College of "los Hermanos Maristas" for six years, and then attended another institute in the same town for his bachelor degree. He received instructions from Juan Nunez at the Figueres municipal school of drawing. His work had showed a great amount of potential that his father finally agreed for him to take painting as his career. .
Dali's painting career had just begun to prosper and was developed into many different types of art. He had won several prizes in the school of national fine arts of San Fernando in Madrid. At this time, he did not draw with bright colors, but rather he was under the influence of Juan Gris, the cubist. The type of art he would draw was known as Cubism. He would paint paintings in abstract of reduced and fragmented natural forms, often, geometric structures. In 1924, he was expelled several times and jailed once. But these acts did not stop him from doing what he loved best, painting. Even though he was expelled and imprisoned, he still had participated in several group exhibitions in Madrid and Barcelona, and had attended another one-man show. Between 1925 and 1927, he had painted several diverse styles. His styles ranged from Realism, to cubism, to neoclassicism. .
In 1927, his fame spread across Figueres, Spain. In 1928, he visited Paris where the Spanish painter, Joan Miro, introduced him to various members of the surrealist group.
