Baylee fighting a nap
24" x 30"
Capturing emotions It amazes me how someone so small can take up so much space in ones life. Children have a way of making a very simple problem larger than life. The child fights a nap and her cries fill every room in the house. We try to make her feel safe and secure by surrounding her with soft familiar objects. Her resolve is strong and the out pour of dissatisfaction of her plight grow louder. Do we give in to her large tearing eyes and pull her close freeing her from her nap, or let her cry herself into a restful sleep.
