Artist's Comments

For Linda. Illustration to A Nick in Time.

Suddenly, I awoke, and there I lay, myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming that I am now a man. - Chuang Tzu

All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream. - Edgar Allan Poe

i really like how the butterflies are incorporated and how they turn into ravens to one side, is that referring to Poe or is it my imagination??? j/c Colors are beautiful too <3

“Why are you laughing?” he asks.

I shake my head dismissively.

Because crying would be out of character, I add silently, and then drink the thought away.
