This piece is inspired by a re-occurring dream I had as a kid.
I often dreamt that I was a witch, dressed in a black robe with a lace collar with a square cut out. Underneath the lace you could see a square tattoo which wrapped around my neck. My sister was a fairy in a pink dress.
At night she kicked me out of the house because I was a witch. I went to the playground and went on the swings. Then I heard roaring from behind me. This sound grew louder and louder as I heard footsteps behind me in the grass.
I was extremely terrified and I tried to jump off the swings into a high object in front of me, often a Christmas tree. After jumping off the swings and fleeing, I looked behind me and saw nothing, just the swings and a dark void behind it.
I ran back to our home and begged my sister, crying, to let me back in. Telling her that I didn't want to be a with anymore. Then she said "ok" and let me back in and that's where the dream ended.
In some instances I also had my pink coat with me which I left in a parking space. I left it there because I was too afraid to get it because of whatever was roaring at me.
Keep in mind that the depiction of the "monster" which was roaring at me is just my artistic representation of it. I don't know what it actually looked like.
