A Dream of Floating

A Dream of Floating
acrylic, envelope
I painted this dream theme on an envelope.  I don't know how well it will hold up to the journey.

I am still sick, do not seem to be getting better.  Doctor tomorrow.  :-(

little dream sketches

I am in a sketchbook exchange program and these are little dream sketches for Aya's pocket.  The pocket is in the back of the sketchbook.  Aya's pocket says, "add dreams here" (Or something like that).

In my flying dreams, I am not always sure
if I am flying or falling.

Sometimes, I can walk through walls
in my dreams!

Lion Nightmare

Nightmare:  The Lion

We have out-of-town company and I am sick.  When they are sitting around talking and drinking, I keep them company in my nightgown doing art.

In the nightmare, which woke me up in literal terror, I was at the coliseum watching the lions about to eat the Christians when one of the lions spotted me in the stands, bounded over the wall and up over the seats toward me.  He was coming for ME.

I have a lot of dreams of being chased down dark alleys by men who intend me harm.  They are nightmares, because I wake up terrified.

I am still sick and my work is going slowly.
