The Child Original Painting

18×24 soft pastel painting on paper

The Child is more than just an image—it is an archetype of eternal youth and innocence, a symbol of the carefree spirit we all once carried. In childhood, we believe in the impossible, laugh without restraint, and trust without fear—until experience teaches us otherwise.

This soft pastel painting captures that fleeting sense of wonder and playfulness, reminding us to reconnect with the joy, curiosity, and lightheartedness we so easily lose in adulthood. Let this original work serve as an invitation to embrace silliness, spontaneity, and the purest parts of life once more.

Description

This is an original soft pastel painting by Katie Jackson (Hutt). FRAME NOT INCLUDED

Shipped with a backboard, wrapped in a plastic sleeve, and encased in a stiff envelope or tube to ensure that it gets safely to your doorstep. 

**To ensure the longevity of your piece please frame right away. Natural light and exposer to air or water are the enemy of artwork. A glass frame (as opposed to plastic) is always preferred. Choose a spot on the wall out of direct sunlight. To ensure your investment holds, I suggest framing with a professional framer or with framebridge who will seal the back of the frame to keep it from getting contaminated with dust, water, or anything else that could damage your painting. Learn more about frames here
