Description

Al-Jadar paints an image of the tranquility and rest that takes place at the end of a days work. The livestock is tethered to a post, the sky is darkening while shifting its hues from brilliant turquoise blue to dusky purples punctuated with silver orbs. The brilliantly colored fabrics which are attached to posts stretch in vertical bands across the middle of the painting. Al-Jadar manages to capture the solemn and peaceful quality of life at twilight.
