“Sleep to Dream”

Sleep to dream for in dreams we are truly awake.

In late 2014 I was being mentored but one of my favorite illustrators. He got me thinking a bit differently about my work and from his gentle nudges my mind opened up, something clicked. During this time I did several sketches and layouts for paintings, some that came to be and some that didn’t. One idea has made it’s way into several pieces and now it’s in sculpture form. The Dreaming Trees are sentient beings who have always been. They begin small as this one and grow to a massive size that would dwarf our largest buildings. They never travel, except for in their dreams. Their bodies are suspended midair seemingly floating above various bodies of water. They dream our world into being and so our lives are merely their creations.
