About this work
A girl sits cross-legged on a purple cloth, eyes closed and head propped heavily on one hand, a small wooden toy car resting under her other palm. Around her, spaced evenly across the pale floor, lie building blocks, a wooden horse, a storybook, a magnifying glass, a drum, a plush bunny and bear, a ball, a toy train and stacking rings, laid out like a flat catalogue of her belongings.
Muted mauve, dusty pink and sand tones unify the girl and her toys against a soft neutral ground, painted with smooth, even modelling rather than visible brushwork. The flattened, evenly lit arrangement and the girl's drooping posture and closed eyes give the picture a quiet, tired, melancholic stillness.
