Donna Dohogne Multimedia Designs Charcoal

Lithograph drawing done in sepia. One of five original limited editions.
This piece is a form of symbolism. The mother is an expression of anyone who has experienced a loss. The child with arms thrown back representing someone close to you that sees things that the average person may not see. The children playing representing the ordinary people you see everyday on the street in a world of thier own. Paths cross but, never intertwine. Poem included with piece.

Children at Play
A mother, in pain
Mourns over the loss of her child
Her eyes dark and hollowed out.
For she is frozen and consumed with emptiness
Emptiness has consumed her soul
She is blind to everything else around her
but, the memory of her loss.
When little does she know her child is always at her side
Watching over her shoulder depicted as an angel with wings.
However, the child on the left is the only one who is aware of his presence and is taken back by this apparition shown by throwing his arms from his side with disbelief.Still, while the mother sits oblivious to her surroundings
...while her children are at play.
