Poking around a used bookstore this afternoon, I felt a magnetic pull to a particular book, which, when I took it down from the shelf, turned out to be a wordless retelling of Aesop's fable of the Lion and the Mouse, in gorgeous watercolors showing a level of attention to biological detail almost reminiscent of Albrecht Dürer.
As I looked through the book, I felt myself entering a light trance state and was overcome with a sense of deep psychic rapport with the artist, as if I were experiencing, in condensed form, all the emotions he had felt as he had planned, composed, and painted the pictures. The experience left me fighting back tears, with an unshakable sense that the artist's spirit had somehow been literally present.
I felt an urgent need to get in touch with the artist, to let him know how much I had appreciated his work, and -- this thought came out of left field -- to wish him a happy birthday. I turned to the front of the book to find the artist's name and how I might contact him, but when I saw that he had published the book 15 years ago and dedicated it to his great-granddaughter, I realized he was unlikely to be still among the living.
A visit to the artist's website when I got home confirmed this. Jerry Pinkney departed mortality in October 20, 2021, having entered it in 1939, on -- as I somehow already knew -- December 22.
Jerry, if this somehow reaches you, thank you.

Jerry Pinkney is multiracial as was Aseop,
but I'm sure you already knew that.
All transitions begin in the dark. and then through
the portal of a doorway, gate, bridge. tunnel or window
or the mother's' doorway : a Vesica Piscis.
Recall in my previous comment I made mention of the
Vesica Piscis regarding your dream of the Black woman
(in the photo) being in the middle of your parents.
copy and paste:
"A Vesica is formed when the circumference of two identical
circles each pass through the center of the other.
When a Vesica Piscis is viewed horizontally,
it looks like a vagina or a womb which is why the
Christ child was often pictured inside of one."
~~~~~~
So not surprisingly you'd have
this paranormal experience on a multiracial man's
BIRTH-day, which is on the 22nd.
Recall my many comments about the number 22 . The number
22 is EVERYWHERE , especially in movies. 22 is a master number
which master numbers are not reduced to its single digit, however
2+2 equals 4, i.e. the doorway.
Adding Eight plus Five of course equals 13 and
when reduced to a single digit equals 4.
You also are in your chronological age of forties, no?
Recall I linked the 1960's Twilight Zone episode titled : 22
with you before. ( re-link below )
Note in the episode clip the character "Liz " is clutching
a clown.
The archetype of the clown/joker/trickster
is also a change (transition ) agent.
Liz is an EL ( El-zibeth ) which the El's aka the Shining Ones
have the gift of foresight. ( 4sight?).
Of course a lizard is also a shinning one.
Recall my many comments about the El's and the master
number 11 and my 2003 11:11 dream experience.
4 Ones also equals 4.
11+11 = 22.
Benjamin Netanyahu aka BB, is a 22.
Recall my gazillion comments about Israel and the Third Temple.
If the Third Temple is built that historic
act will be a Huge transformation, according to prophecy, no?
In the Twilight Zone clip note Liz reaches for water
and the water glass breaks.
I think that symbolizes the birthing, that is:
when a pregnant woman's water breaks before delivery.
Water being a conduit to the 'other side'.
And last but not least, Liz's profession is a night club stripper.
Recall your recent dream about the 'eraser' dog?
Also recall my previous comments about Taylor Swift
and 22. In the video below note at the ending, Taylor Falls down
into water.
Also the name Taylor
copy and paste:
" From an English surname that originally denoted someone
who was a tailor, from Norman French tailleur, ultimately
from Latin taliare "to cut".
~~~~
And yet again another connection to stripping, cutting ( El-on's
DOGE perhaps?) erasing etc,
Although a tailor cuts he/she also sews new garments to 'cloak'
us in.
Another 22 reference was in the 1985 movie Lost in America
(link below ).
I think I commented previously about this movie as well.
The plot of Lost in America is about a Boomer couple in their early
40's who decide to transition to a new mindset and lifestyle
of a nomad after being worn down by corporate America.
IMHO, I think your soul is trying to get your attention regarding
an upcoming transition be it an individual transition
or a collective one.

This is a good post. I hope your well-wishes do reach the artist.
