Description:
The painting is in oils on stretched linen and ready to hang as described above.
It was painted using brush and palette knife techniques and has a lot of texture.
"Companions in Silence" is an oil painting highlighting the often-overlooked issue of homelessness. Set against the iconic backdrop of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, the scene shows a boy and his loyal dog sitting quietly on the wet pavement, their isolation starkly contrasting the grandeur of the city around them. The red sailboat in the harbour adds a poignant touch of movement and hope to an otherwise sombre scene. Vidal captures the solitude and resilience of those who endure life on the streets through delicate brushwork and a muted colour palette. The falling autumn leaves, wet reflections, and stillness speak to the quiet struggles of many, while the boy's bond with his dog offers a glimpse of companionship in an otherwise harsh reality.
