Don't Take the Boy

from $20.00

Don't Take the Boy

This piece, titled "Don't Take the Boy," is a core part of The Uninvited Guest series. This intimate and deeply personal work was meticulously created with Prismacolor colored pencils on heavyweight drawing paper.

Here, I am shown hiding within the perceived safety of my bedroom, a retreat from the encroaching reality outside my window. The focus is on the heartbreaking, helpless feeling of watching something you love—in this case, my dog, my "boy"—being stolen or beamed up into the light of the craft.

This piece illustrates the invisible disruptions of the past; it shows that even in a place of sanctuary, the "uninvited guest" threatens the things that ground you and keep you happy, reminding you that sometimes, you can't even protect what you love most.
