Drawing Pastel on Nepal Paper by Bob Meyer: Dog Bites, Boy Jumps, Framed

The title is the plot. The dog has already started.

This framed drawing, Dog bites, boy jumps, is by Bob Meyer: pastel on Nepal paper, from France, about 2014. A stout boy in a red cap and white overalls, patched at the knee, strides off with his fists up. A large wind-up key sticks out of his back. Behind him, a small spotted dog has him by the seat. The ground is a soft taupe, the words scrawled along the bottom. Image 34 by 42 inches, framed 48.25 by 57 high.

One suspects the spring is about to run out, for one of them.
