About this work
A young woman sits on a couch, one arm resting protectively around a boy who lies curled asleep against a pillow in her lap. He is wrapped in a patterned blue blanket, and a bright child's drawing of a clown hangs on the wall behind them, catching a shaft of light.
Soft, diffused light washes over the pale wall and the woman's white blouse, built up with smooth, blended brushwork typical of academic realism. Muted creams, blues and warm skin tones dominate, and the tender, still pose of the two figures gives the scene a hushed, protective calm.
