I have been away for a while, not doing art but doing photography. It's a wonderful release of stress and so immediate: that little camera goes everywhere and takes no time at all to grab a moment. I miss drawing though, and lately images have begun to haunt me. Some of them have come out of dark feelings and even from dreams. This one was originally on white paper, but I couldn't resist the inverted image. The original is at the right, for reference. (Flickr link)
Do you also see your fears and dreams more clearly when you put them on paper?
