Our assignment was to draw a vivid dream. I was so worried that I wouldn't remember a dream because I am generally sleep deprived and don't get much REM sleep - but I had this dream last night and almost couldn't go back to sleep for fear of forgetting it!

I dreamed I was in a swimming pool and swimming along fine. Then, more and more people jumped in the pool. I was still ok until I started getting swept up by the swimming crowd. I felt like I might drown if I didn't slow down. So, I grabbed the edge of the pool for dear life.

Here's my drawing from this morning.

I still find it very challenging to draw images from my mind, rather than life. I think I just need to draw MORE.

Have you tried drawing your dreams?
