A dream I had of salmon swimming at my feet
I think in my last post I wrote something about feet. Yes, I’ve been working on sketching a pen and ink (possibly add color later) about a dream I had several years ago that has pretty much stuck with me. It was in Alaska (or somewhere up north, but for some reason Alaska sounds right) I was standing in some still clear water (could have been an estuary), and all of a sudden thousands of salmon were swimming past my legs and I could feel them kissing my feet. It felt completely real and exciting. Then all of a sudden I started swimming with them and ended up in the ocean where I was met by these whales flapping their enormous tail fins in the water. I wasn’t even scared by them, I just started playing with them. When I woke up, I felt this blanket of peace. I wanted to go back to sleep and relive that dream. I still do. Sometimes when I am stressing out, I will think of that dream.
I have dreams of north. Northern Lights, snow, and water. I used to be very big on dream interpretation, but as of yet, the only dreams I have are really about stuff that I was thinking about before I went to bed. Or the tv show I was watching before I went to bed, hah. But, I don’t really have dreams like that anymore, or that often. But, I know it’s just a rough sketch (all of my stuff are just sketches really). I hope that soon by the start of the new year (that’s my goal) to start selling some cards and illustration stuff on my etsy site. Wish me luck, I am not very confident in my art. And I do want to do digital stuff soon. I just need to get my butt in gear.
