dream

An artist and her inner world of self doubt and the highs and lows of pursuing her passion. Negative thoughts that appear to be real low vibe entities pressure her but still she believes in her dream.

Many beginnings. Beginning 5. Frederick was contemplating geese flying south for winter and dreaming about moving to Florida. * Starting is easy, it's the middle that is often a muddle. And I won't even mention the endings. Here are some beginnings for children stories that flitter through my head. https://www.instagram.com/p/COu0fRFhvBo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

I saw this in my dream and decided to paint it.

I genuinely can't believe it's already March (I also can't believe it'll be a year since the pandemic really started). Yesterday also marked one year since I started journaling, which isn't an actual major thing, but still. How quickly time flies and how big of a difference a year can make. "And when it rains, the rain falls down Washing out the cattle town But she's quite safe up far away in her eiderdown And she dreams of crystal streams Of days gone by when we would lean Laughing, fit to burst, on each other."

dreaming / reality

Lo-fi surrealism time!

Palm Pals fan art time? Yes :-)

It’s been a little while since I did some Kirby fan art, so I thought I’d do something about that!

Drawing a human figure was a dream of mine. This was the closest I could do the reference model.

This is a digital rendering of a drawing I have recreated several times. The original was a doodle done in high school and has since been done as a painting, a tattoo design, and now as digital art. My inspiration was 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', classic cartoons (Woody the Woodpecker), and pinup art styles.

Hello again Kirby!

Valentine’s Day treats being put to good use :-)

More Nintendo fever dreams here in tonight’s artwork :-)

Not as apocalyptic as it looks or sounds! Inspired by a dream I had about committing a social faux-pas of the worst kind you could imagine.

The end of one sketchbook, with the beginning of another to arrive shortly!

Three kings stopped a walking man to ask advice about their dreams. But the man said, "Oh no please, I don't want to hear these things." "I have dreams of my own although they'll never come to pass... I just work my life away while all you rich guys sit and laugh."

This is an illustration I did last year that is included in a book of short stories about 'Abdul-Baha, the son of the founder of the Baha'i Faith, entitled "To Serve All Humanity".

A small sketchbook exercise using watercolor, Neocolor 2 and colored pencils.

Sometimes my dreams give me ideas. But when demons visit, you start to question yourself.

A young girl's dreams are directed by two fairies creating scenes of magical creatures. 8.5x11 inch pen and ink drawing with digital color.

An old piece. It was previously very rough, but recent improvements in photo editing skills made it look better and better as time passed. Probably... my impression of a wondrous dream world? Music inspiration: Metrik - Freefall (Ft. Reija Lee)

A person in a relaxed posture sits in a bean bag chair, grasping a drink while surrounded by the phrase "It's an only exist kind of day." The color palette is cozy, with muted greens and reds creating an atmosphere of calm contentment.
