Fire Tulip Dreams

This ia a manipulated painting of mine I created using Corel and Jasc software along with using a Wacom tablet. I am laughing because I get request for photos, my kalidiscopes, portraits, and florals if I neglect one style of art for a while. It keeps me busy switching from one subject to another, and from getting stuck on one type of art. So, I'm posting a fantasy type floral abstract this time. I dream in colors when I sleep. Often I am doing something in my dreams. Oddly, I used to do homework in my dreams, get the answers correctly and get up and write them down before I forget and fell back to sleep. I write songs and poetry occasionally as well, so got in a habit of keeping paper & pen to grab. I dream of working on art sometimes, and this is one I had in my sleep last night. Seems my compulsive thinking mind likes to keep busy even when sleeping. So, there is one of my sources of inspiration for new art to do. I don't get the dreams so often anymore (I have meds at night that knock me out or I stay up-like now and not sleep. LOL!

Artist Reply: LOL! Thanks Greg! I'd have been wild if I'd gone to one and drank. Can't hold a drop of alchohol and stay sober, sSo, just don't touch it. I get crazy if I drink Dr. Pepper sodas, I get wasted on caffine!

beautiful terry - it does look like a kaleidascope!

Artist Reply: Thanks Joseph! I like doing fun designs some are perfectly symmetrical kalidiscopes, but , as this one, sometimes I want a little bit of variety to draw you eye to look. It takes a bit longer to add in by hand the extras, but it works well.

Artist Reply: Thank you Nelly! The tulips wer flame colors, so I decide to go with flaming tulips and some contrasting accents. Glad you like this one!
