I keep dreaming that I am drawing...usually trying to get shading to follow form. I do dream in colour but it is noted many dream in black and white... Anyway I wonder if it counts as practice if I am asleep and whether I can make use of it. I know a couple of ideas that I have painted came out of dreams. Is this something that others have experience or is it just my obsessive nature?
I've dreamed a couple of times that I've been on stage singing for the Big Band I work with, and I know that would be a very bad thing; so maybe it's just a random real-world intrusion.
Interesting, Davey, maybe your dreams are based on your want to get thing absolutely right with regards to the course you are on...who knows. Sub-conscious thoughts in our sleeping hours often reveal more than we realise.
