After Kiyoshi Saito

This image came to me in a dream, or rather I pictured it while half-awake. I don’t think I am very good at picturing things ‘in my mind’s eye’, but in a half-waking state, occasionally fully-formed images appear, fleetingly. Apparently, you can train this part of your conscious-dreaming mind, but more on that later. I can only imagine with envy whether for others this ability is available on-demand in their waking hours.

It wasn’t intentional, but I realised my rendering of the image – faithful except for a patch of blue sky top left that I could find no way to delineate successfully – looks very much in the manner of a Kiyoshi Saito print. In a way I ‘found’ it, so I am posting it here as ‘dream ephemera‘.
