Owen SterlingPainting in a dream is how the mind works to manage how things are perceived or how they appear to the world. The brain uses this process to smooth over the edges of a situation or to provide a new surface where old flaws are hidden.
The dream shows a movement where the dreamer is adjusting the way they present themselves or their circumstances to others. This movement toward a new appearance can involve the masking of old imperfections to facilitate a fresh start. While this process of altering an image can be taxing, it provides the mental space necessary for a change in outward orientation.
The presence of someone else painting in a dream suggests that the forces of change or the management of appearances are felt as being outside of the dreamer’s direct control. This indicates that the adjustments to a situation are being driven by external circumstances or the actions of others.
When paint appears in a dream, the focus shifts to the actual quality of the change being processed. A layer of new color signifies that a constructive change is currently taking place in the way the world is encountered.
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
