This is Paul Bond's Lao Tzu's Dream. (Do you know what Lao Tzu's name means? Old Teacher. ) Yeah, I'm a total STAN. Look at how he uses hyper-realism (the stones' texture) but utterly surreal elements...you know, the tree & such...knock the viewer a little off balance. Plus, it's a little mockery of the whole hipster cairn-building fad. He's good.

This artwork created by Mushroom Dreams Visionary Art, Is named “I Am What I think.” Now that you know the name, doesn’t the artwork seem to make more sense? As I study this artwork, magical realism stands out as the image portrays a nonrealistic, magical looking lady, surrounded and made up of other animals and plants, all full of bright colors. The more I look at this picture I start to realize that you truly are who you think you are, and if you can’t help yourself be who you want to be, no one else can either.
