Summary:
"Since the 1990s, I had been working on a project to record and render my dreams, striving to make many of the artworks I had encountered in those dreams. This set off an odd cycle of dreaming. I started drawing dreams, working full-time to make the art objects come true, especially in the form of the canonical Americana of paperback covers"--Jim Shaw, back cover.
