Guiding Hand

A young child leans close to the hand of an adult, pressing their face against it with tenderness. The stark contrast between light and dark divides the composition, leaving the child illuminated at the edge of shadow. Torn textures across the background reinforce themes of protection and vulnerability. It is a meditation on trust, touch, and early memory.
