Very odd dream: I think I was working for a publishing house and one of my assignments was to find an image or sketch of the head of a man. This image was going to be used in an important news piece and I needed to come up with something quick. There were people standing around making frantic suggestions. I finally found a picture of what appeared to be Clint Eastwood confessing to some damn thing. So I quickly sketched in the outline of his head and hair, his very large white rimmed eye glasses, nose, open mouth and chin. It didn't look bad for a hasty sketch in black and white. Then I woke up to NRP and the daily news and the now winter storm predicting heavy rain and wind on the coast. Let me see what would I ask the dream interpretation web site; drawing, a portrait, maybe...

Drawing
To dream that you are drawing represents an expression of your latent artistic abilities. You need to show more of your creativity in your waking life. Alternatively, the dream may be a pun on a "draw" to mean a tie or some undecided decision or argument. "It's a draw."

Um okay, maybe I should take up art of some sort. There is an art studio on Highway 42 just outside of town going towards Myrtle Point, maybe...
Also I watched a fascinating piece on Oregon Art Beat last night about John Simpkins, an artist living in Harney county in a ghost town for the past three years, I really admired the colors and some of the images he was painting. He said that he traveled and when in Tibet he decided that if he could find someplace like Tibet that wasn't too far from civilization, he would move there. Safeway is that-a-way about 150 miles from the ghost town of Andrew.







Picture

To see a picture in your dream symbolizes a mental imprint that remains persistent in your mind. Your actions are irreversible. There is no turning back in what you do. Also consider the phrases "picture this" or "seeing the big picture" in a situation. In particular, if the picture is in black and white picture, then it indicates that you need to consider opposing viewpoints. Alternatively, it may mean that you need to add more color and pizzazz to your life.

I am quite unhappy that I cannot technically import one of the artists pictures, I encourage you to Google John Simpkins work.  Enjoy.

Grandma Moses didn't start her career seriously, until she was 78. You still have some time, I always thought you were pretty good.
