Daydreaming can be used to escape reality. All the stresses from day-to-day activities made us feel restless and seemed never ending. One could just simply lay down and imagine 1001 things while daydreaming. You just let your mind wander off for hours and hours without limitations. It is also a sign of having an active brain. Daydreaming makes us feel that one could achieve anything if we put our mind to it. A beautiful girl is placed at the centre of the artwork, surrounded by flora and fauna, goldfishes, butterfly etc, a surrealistic composition that matches the suggested title.
