Oliver Twist

A child’s flight through cobbled plight,
Eyes wide with fear, yet full of light.
Each stride defies a fate unjust—
A plea for mercy, a run for trust.

This mixed media on paper deftly captures cinematic realism with a painterly hand.
The genre lies between portraiture and narrative illustration, drawing from classic film poster art.
Brushwork, line, and controlled washes blend to animate the character’s desperate motion.
The composition uses atmospheric depth and subtle textures to evoke urgency and era.
