Dance the night away ...For a beautiful dreaming Meet your longing in a day Like a daybreak beaming Romantic feelings inside That in night you found Thru your day will glide Till your dreams come around
Dance the night to heart Find shades you adore It’s a fresh morning start Like your own wishing star All the moods in the hour From a moon-lited night Is your blooming flower In your romantic flight
Dance the night and find What dreams are made of Leave your worries behind On dream wings and its love If you still are in doubt In a nighttime like this Look at clouds far about In their magic and bliss
This reminds me of my country men's dream. To have a home within their own house, not an apartment, not a condominium, but a real house in a lot. The piece makes me wonder if it really is possible to dream of a dream house in our times. Is it viable for people in the lower middle class and below to dream of equality, freedom, and brotherhood? Houses like the one drawn make a community.
I like that the style used for the child's drawing IS childish. The soft shading of the child's arms and head covering is very well done and off-sets what is real and what is the child's dream. Surprisingly, the soft lead brings on a homelier work than most charcoal pieces.
Had to analyse this work for an AOS: Belonging. I found this an odd choice for the teachers to pick as, as you can see, it's been displayed on Deviantart. DA is generally seen as a very informal place. Nonetheless a good work. My having to analyse it generally degraded the amount of enjoyment I could derive from this piece.
