Deep Sleep

Acrylic on canvas board.  9" x 12".  2014

I had a dream a few nights ago where I was in some cheap motel room and couldn't wake up.  I could hear the phone ringing somewhere far away and I knew people were looking for me but I couldn't move.  I knew they'd never find me in this place and, in a way, that was a good thing.  I remembered something about a car wreck and someone bringing me here but I couldn't remember the details.  Still, I felt like I wasn't alone.... even in this dark place.
