Have you ever had a lucid dream? In general, I have about one lucid dream per moon cycle. This mornings lucid dream was me making artwork. It began with a vision of a female Shaman in a leafy wooded surround. It was a mixed media piece ~ decorative paper and acrylics. I “saw” the artwork and then consciously began to look at the different parts of it and “see” how it could be done. I re worked it several times. This image has been haunting me for a while, and most of what I have come up with is pretty stilted, stiff, disappointing. This morning, I went to my local art supply store and bought a new clay board. Doing this, following up on a dream, lets the subconscious know that you are paying attention. This encourages a conversation with the subconscious, with dreams, visions, bringing into being the inner vision. I have begun the making of art.
