“Stained Glass Spirits” based on a dream I had yesterday. ~ I was happily floating through a medieval village by the light of the full moon. I was not alone in my wandering. As I gazed serenely at the others drifting above the cobbled streets, I began to notice how every being cast a colorful glow as they went. How delightful! Their auras were made of stained glass! Some facets shone bright with an inner fire, others sparkled darkly in the reflected moonlight and some had facets missing altogether, which seemed to let the slightest breeze dim or extinguish the radiance of the other facets. I was still marveling at the sheer beauty of the images and knowledge imparted as I awoke. I was compelled to set aside other projects to try and recreate a vision of the stained glass spirits. I’ve made plenty of things inspired by the symbolism in my dreams but this is the first time I’ve actually depicted imagery straight from my dreams. I’m happy with the results even though it isn’t perfect. It was also my first time trying to make something look like stained glass. It required a lot of patience but I found the process meditative. Definitely gave me ideas for other projects.
