Mixed Media on paper

Signed on the front.

So many parentless children in Gaza, so many young children looking after their even younger siblings. This boy gazes into a relentlessly violent world but there appears to be some hope, some memories.

This is a small work on paper and would look best among a collection of similar size paintings. The boy is drawn in charcoal and the background is in acrylic. The background is slightly redder than in the photo. Both charcoal and acrylic sprayed with a finishing varnish.
