Black Painting in dreams
A representation of something — sometimes of an inner state, sometimes of a memory.
How black changes the reading
The base reading of Painting
A painting in a dream is the dictionary's image of a deliberate representation. The dream often appears when you have been forming a version of something — a relationship, a memory, an idea — in your head, and the dream is showing you the version you have been working on.
Where you often see it. A painting on a wall that you cannot quite see clearly. A painting being made in front of you. The dream uses the painting for a representation of something — sometimes of an inner state, sometimes of a memory.
What it is not. A painting is not always art. The dictionary reads it as a held image of something the dreamer has decided to hold.
