What is a dream? To me, whether they are the waking reveries of our minds or more mysterious nocturnal fantasies, dreams are windows into new worlds. The inspiration for this work came while listening to my model recall a recent dream, while looking out a window in my studio. In the finished work I have him kneeling, bolt upright on the edge of a bed, spreading the curtains on the dawn of his new vision. He is Day Dreaming.
