About this work

This photo shows a cozy, lived-in room with four kids. The oldest girl, in a brown shirt, stands holding a younger child in her arms. A baby sleeps on a couch covered with a red blanket, while two other kids sit nearby. The walls are plain, with a few framed pictures and a shelf of books in the background. The title hints the oldest girl escapes into dreams, even as she takes care of others. This work is one of ten prints made using a printing method that transfers images onto paper. Look up lithography to see how this technique works.
