I am working on two huge wall-sculptures made of clay. I need to climb a ladder to work on the one above a fireplace, inside of a small room with tall, white wooden walls. This brown clay sculpture is a maned lion’s head, actual size, visually roaring at me. The piece is nearly done. I tweak it a bit with my fingers and add some moisture to the drying clay. I climb down the ladder and move out of the room to the other, lower artwork. It is covered in cloth, probably to help slow the drying process. I remove the fabric, which is dirty with clay on the outer layer. The sculpture under the brown cloth is white. Perhaps I have tinted it with white underglaze. Clean, pure.
Day notes:
I had a wonderful visit with my parents yesterday. They were both loving and conversational. I learned a lot about what has been going on in their lives and my siblings’ lives. They say they are ready to work on selling their Cambridge house, so they are starting to give away furniture and artwork. I brought home a stone sculpture I have loved for years of a wild cat (lion?) circled by a snake. My father found it in Mexico City, I think.
I am still assuming the illustrations I need to create for my book will be partially made of clay. This dream seems to confirm that idea will succeed, but it will be hard work!
The brown and white colors stand out in this dream. Earth. Clouds.
What a great dream. You have had lion dreams in the past, right? What a great animal guide-strong, fierce, demanding! The other sculpture is out of the room? Will it be on a lower wall in the same or different room? I love that it is pure white. Spiritual? Do you know what the sculpture is: Another animal?
And how lovely to have this dream after bringing home that marvelous sculpture from your father. Lion with a snake wrapped around it. Transitional. It sounds like you are being asked to bring your two loves together.
