life's fragility

Life's Fragility
12 x 16" Prismacolor Drawing
------------------------------

This a Prismacolor drawing I did several years ago when my son was still very young (he's now 27).  It is called "Life's Fragility".  I purposely focused on his hands so they look large and clumsy holding the fragile orchid.  On one hand he is admiring its beauty and on the other hand he, being a child, could get bored and crush it ... and it would be destroyed.

We are all children.  Be aware of life's fragility and careful how you handle it.
