The Actor (On The Stage) 👴 Father’s Piece

My father describes: “My father** was a stage person (actor) and the painting was meant to represent him. I painted it using a dry brush technique in one stroke.”

I see here a figure of a clown – a cheerful, lively figure. My father (on 12/25/2022), after I told him that to me this piece is a “clown”, said that my grandfather (his father) when he came to Negba to “soften” the group of children so that he could help my father be accepted – put on a coat and put his hands down the back of his back while at the same time he inserted a broom from behind, the “tip” of which touched the collar of the coat – in doing so, he moved the coat. In other words, the name “clown” is also appropriate in this respect. In conclusion, both “actor” and “clown” are stage people.
