Sea Creature



















Another painting of mine. The beginning of it was I tried my best to draw hypnagogic imagery with a pencil in my hand and my eyes closed. The position of the pencil on the page was difficult to track and when I was working on it later it became more about bringing the forms together into more consistent larger forms. This is how the two characters or sea monsters at the centre of the picture come into being. The sea as usual represents the unconscious. The Stingray and the baby come from one of my dreams. The stingray in the dream was the child's mother.
