A Peaceful Slumber

Post by Lee

This image was inspired by insomnia 😀 Sometimes I wake up at night and can't sleep and so of course I go check Facebook (probably not the best way to fall back asleep!). I see a lot of people complaining about not being able to sleep so I wanted to make a sort of fairy tale image that showed someone in a deep slumber. I got the idea of the bull as a protector and as a guardian. I noticed that both my son and my cats seem to really be able to sleep when they know they are totally safe and protected.

This image is painted in watercolor on a rigid watercolor board. Painted size is 16"x20". The framed and matted size is 22"x28"
