Dreams have ways of healing matters of our conscious minds. Sometimes waking up from a nightmare leaves you with a feeling of euphoria. I believe this is due to our meditative state when deep in REM. In this painting I explore the restorative properties of dreaming. The figure is vised between blank fields of nothing. They are left as a "fill in the blank" for what stress, pressure, or problem is being endured. Her posture is comfortable but in control, as she is experiencing the gift of healing.
