Day Dream Believer

February 22, 2015 - Lake Worth, Florida

After living in Jacksonville, FL for a little while, I had walked passed a statue in the town's square often. I thought it would make a cool street painting. I was also JUST starting to feel confident in trying out the "3-D / Anamorphic" approach to this artform.
The statue is of a boy riding a paper airplane that is gliding above a tree while the same boy is at the base of the tree daydreaming with a book in his lap.

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings of the bluebird as she sings. The six o'clock alarm would never ring. But it rings and I rise, wipe the sleep out of my eyes. My shavin' razor's cold and it stings.

Cheer up, sleepy Jean, Oh, what can it mean to a Daydream believer and a Homecoming queen?

You once thought of me as a white knight on his steed. now you know how happy I can be. Oh, our good time starts and ends, without dollar one to spend but how much, baby, do we really need?
