I had a dream that an old friend of my late father’s, who in real life I had an affair with briefly , was sitting behind me and painting my buttocks. He was painting in all pretty bright colors, alive and vibrant. It felt nice , the brush on my skin. Tom was doing it slowly and he seemed to be enjoying it a lot. Others were watching us and enjoying it too. I had no embarrassment or modesty whatsoever. I didn’t even notice really that I had nothing on from the waist down. The painting came out like a beautiful tattoo. I wonder when the paint will dry and his long the abstract painting will last.
I have a dream that I was painting a wall. Paint on wall – first time so clear dream for me.
