'MY RE-OCCURING DREAM'

OIL ACRYLIC ON CANVAS
BASED ON A DREAM I USE TO HAVE ON CHRISTMAS EVE.
I USE TO HAVE THE SAME DREAM ABOUT 5 TO 6 YEARS IN A ROW AS A CHILD.
EVERY CHRISTMAS EVE I WOULD HAVE IT.
IT WAS BASICALLY A NIGHTMARE ABOUT A GIFT THAT WAS SO SMALL,SAY A JEWELRY SIZE BOX-LIKE A RING BOX.
IT WAS UNDER THE TREE.
BUT THE PROBLEM WAS--I COULD NOT MOVE IT--OR OPEN IT-
IT FELT LIKE IT WEIGHED A MILLION POUNDS-BUT HOW COULD THAT BE WHEN THE BOX WAS NO BIGGER THAN 3 INCHES.
THIS IS BASED ON THAT NIGHTMARE I USE TO HAVE AS A CHILD....
