Artist's Comments

In the slow breaths whole being rest there is a relax thats all the defense mechinisims at once crashing open. They are what is holding us here in these bodies, molding out perception to synapse, physics and personage as 'Human'.

When we sleep we can creep between borders of hierarchal orders and into the universes they hide.

Sleep is the other half of life
where histories you do not know
together we shall lead and have led
Praise
for sleep
is sacred.

at night when we lay down, surrender to gravity, untie the strings that keep us tied to conscious worlds. we release and breach upon rocks of non-such like waves on some unthinking tide.

my bed calls..

30 or 40 layers painted on w/ the airbrush tool in photoshop using pics as an original source. The texturing is through using flow control on the brushes at various sizes on various offset layers that cover the whole spectrum from dodge to burn to differance.

Well thank you for thinking me so :) considering your lovliness I find myself quite flattered that it is so. :excited:

Sleep is sacred to me- truly- it is a place where I have lived thousands of lives in a physic set that is coherent to the whim of the witness and this is delicious to me.

Dont get me wrong- I like it here too :)

A moment please? You see I need speak a meek minor point of contention, a subtle but pivitol disagrement with what you mentioned.

Therein them smoke laced laudnum landscapes hangs the states of consciousness expressed in magnificent metaphysical examples of what inside is essential to the perceiver, nowhere in the choas strung, whimsy world does an unthinking tide curl its smoke-through sunlight. It the flight of all fancies at once, its the expression of the divine subconsciousness, or the perceivers- take your pick but it is tides of purpose lain to work us in terrains we can only dream of.

I love it there
I love it here
but there I am the meat meeting divine play
where as here I play meat in the divine's play of meeting itself again.

Thanks for the comment my friend.

Haha YES I put people to sleep with this piece
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
(now to feed off of their dreams in order to pay an extradimensional construction crew who are building me a stairway to heaven and a highway to hell)
