Assist

Acrylic, chalk & oil pastel

on paper


Two figures perhaps, or maybe one figure with support of some kind. It is always good to know that someone or something is there when needed. There are many ways to help sometimes it is just listening at other times a hug is needed. It is sometimes hard to cuddle someone as much as you want to, just as it is sometimes hard to put your emotions into words. A base coat of acrylic paint is applied onto the paper, when dry the image is drawn in oil pastel. White chalk was then smudged and smeared to “bring out” the figures that provide the imagined narrative.
