A lucid dream is a dream in which you know you are dreaming. I have had them fairly regularly since I was a child, and recently, I have been using this altered state of consciousness to create artworks.

When you are in a lucid dream, you interact with an environment guided and influenced by your thoughts. To put it simply, if you expect something to happen, then it probably will, but not necessarily in the precise way you wanted. A lucid dream is a mixture of conscious intent and often surprising and random events in reaction to that intent.

This dynamic plays itself out on the page when I am drawing inside my lucid dream. Most of the time, I draw a single line before the dream takes over and fills the page with bizarre imagery.

Watch the video to see what I mean. If you would like to find out more, visit my website and follow me on Instagram.
