i did not dream last night...

i did not dream last night...

woke up this morning
with my pillow black and indigo

silence of unbleached tides
whisper of slate rain
echoed as i tear the last drop
black and indigo

then i remembered
the love affair last night
moleskin and mont blanc

i did not dream last night
and i’m still here…

    Beautiful silvery effect, Mimi. This is a goodie! :-)

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks you hillie… i am quite happy with the result… this is just as i rough sketched (in my head) it in the shower before i started it… i brain storm in my shower, not by choice but it happens all the time… i am most creative during shower time… i think because i pretend i’m standing in the rain… the rain i love so well… and i am pretty good at pretending too. : )

    superbe subtil expressif and judicious choice of the color
    well done deep and very feminine style

  • mimi yoon replied

    i was there… felt the colors with my skin, and my soul lived the emotion of that moment… that figure is me and the surrounding is my rain… : )

    makes me want to crawl under the covers and sleep my day away… or maybe i wanted to do that today anyway. you captured me today with this one. it is just how i feel…
    ...this is beautiful!

  • mimi yoon replied

    hi scott…
    trying to recover from a long nice weekend?
    after reading your comment, looked at the painting again, and you’re right… now i want to close all my blinds and crawl back into my bed with this gigantic mug of coffee… and pretend the outside looks like this…
    ... thank you scott~ : )

  • scott allison

    scott allison

    it was a long weekend… not so sure how nice it was…
    did you make couch cussion and blanket forts when you were a kid? those were great on rainy days… crawl inside with a book and a flashlight…

  • mimi yoon replied

    : )
    i sure did, but we played a man and his wife… : )
    and i made him breakfast and sent him off to work… : )

  • mimi yoon replied

    but if i was to go back and make the fort again… this time, it will be a fort not a pretend house… and i would crawl inside with a poetry book, a sketch book, a pencil, and a flashlight…

  • scott allison

    scott allison

    it is never too late to make a fort…
