Imagine you have an idea...Then you have another...You remind yourself to write them down... Then you have another great idea!!
..........But haven't yet written down the past 2 and their mental image is beginning to fade.......Drowning in a sea of ideas...
what are those ideas you ask..umm maybe a wonderful color scheme or the hottest natural composition in a pile of dog shit...or the shadows that paint the wall cast from the window....... as u lie in the darkness before sleeping...
Some are written down in words..... easy to reference the proper mental image.......some are sketched as small reminder thumbnails...id say i write down about 40% of the ideas that come....The rest are stored mentally or lost until the right event in life brings it back up...
Imagine laying in bed ..eyes closed..You lie as if you were asleep.... but you are awake ....These ideas bouncing around in your head...Its 12:00 am by the way...
You can see these concepts... break them apart put them back together rearrange ect.........Then....its all so clear...
Its exciting...You cant wait to do this tomorrow!! .....It makes you restless...You want to get up and write it down...... Begin drawing... this ....nothing ......and make it into something...
You open your eyes....its 2:23am...fuck !
So you squeeze your eyes shut and tell yourself to sleep.....
Its so clear!!.....Your eyes go back and forth in their sockets....legs are restless ....and the bed no longer feels as comfortable as it used to be....Your fighting it...It can wait until tomorrow...Start fresh....Dammit...
You open your eyes......The time is 4:00am on the dot!!!...

Its time for bed!!

Now....imagine laying in bed ..eyes closed..You lie as if you were asleep.... but you are awake...and you have another idea!
