These are delightful! I love the intuitive process you are describing, allowing yourself to draw with childlike curiosity, free from judgement or analysis. I see stories, fairytales beyond the Golden Gate, in the Mysterious Mountain, where the Spiky Dragon rescues lost princess-hearts, and the Owl Tree lays golden eggs...
They are childlike partly because of my limited artistic training; but to me the subliminal messages are profound, mythological, archetypal. As are fairytales, of course. But these drawings lead me towards a different terrain than the fairytales I absorbed as a child (Grimm's, Andrew Lang). In my more intentional verbal work (through a novel I'm writing) I have been trying to figure out how to get beyond the old chivalric heroic good vs evil storyline, which has such stickiness in our culture. The golden Light that beckons in these images seems to be inviting us to get unstuck, go beyond....
I can totally relate to that. In my creative work (mostly writing) I also find that it is good sometimes to switch 'creative channels', e.g. drawing, painting, movement... I can see that in your images.

Yes, I agree about switching creative channels. And sometimes just relax and receive, as I do by water or in forests, and through rocks…
These are amazing for colour energy healing! Yellow is self-confidence, will, stepping into action!
Yes, the yellow/golden energy has been running so strong in this series! I have worn down my yellow pencils!
Beautiful drawings that speak to me! I see hope...
Yes, I always feel uplifted when I surrender to this process and move into the Light in these drawings.
