This is the illustration to accompany my poem of the same name.
It's easy to be smug about other people's escapism, but I believe it's an essential survival tool for most of us, be it watching a soppy film, reading a thriller (and imagining yourself as the dashing hero) or sitting on a bench during your lunch break and day dreaming. Let's face it, most of our lives aren't the kind you find in films, often there isn't a happy ending and a deus ex machina is a rare occurence.
So this is for all the daydreams that made our lives a little brighter and a little happier.
The image was as difficult to get right as the poem... however, I am happy it has the feel I was after now. :-)

I know I'd be lost without my own 'mind castles'!
