Andrew Wyath painted a picture titled “Christina’s World” in 1948, inspired by his neighbor, Christina Olson. Christina had polio, a disease which eliminates almost all use of the lower body, and each day she would drag herself to and from her house using only her upper body. My picture takes place in the same field as Christina’s world, only colored differently. The characters standing in said field are Lydia the kangaroo and her joey, Carlos, who have just been evicted from their home. Lydia’s husband and Carlos’s father died of cancer ten years ago, and Lydia had been struggling to pay the bills with no prevail. Desperate and alone, she is now putting her boxing skills to use for the first time in ten years in a last ditch effort to earn some money.
