This painting came about intuitively as the dragon appeared slowly to remind of knowings long forgotten but emerging again to shine light on bigger realities and possibilities. Sometimes the painting process is very intuitive, without knowing what's going to happen. First a cosmic star background was created in acrylic, and a slight dragon head or face was glimpsed, and once recognized, it was defined more by the painting process. The rest of the dragons body remains as more etheric, but the next element that popped up, was the golden city nested in the ether, similar to some visions of higher dimensional cities that were glimpsed during medicine journeys. Then the "island of souls" representing a soul group or soul family was more clearly defined, on the mid-right side. Then the persons head looking up, from the bottom right, was placed as the last significant element, thus creating a communication or some kind of exchange between the star dragon and the three dimensional human. The human is also obviously connected to the soul family above. The black geometric "ladder" is an overlay that provides dimensional access. The yellow bridge connects to the golden city... etc etc...
