Support

 
 
I went to one of my favorite places, the Sculpture Park at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, to take pictures that would represent this week's Wordsmith Studio Creative Prompt-Support. I knew there were a variety of physical examples of support in the park. As I walked around, I was reminded that this has become a place from which I draw support for my art and my well-being.
 
I took about a dozen pictures in search of one to use in this post. They included the columns that are part of the Nelson-Atkins Building, parts of various sculptures and even some fencing near the Bloch Building. I settled on the above stairway because it shows two forms of support. One is the structural support that holds up the railings. The other is the railings themselves, which give support to those who need or choose to use them to go up and down the stairs.
 
Thanks to Rebecca Barray for this week's prompt. Where do you find support?

    Great photo! And I really like the photo is taken in a place that supports your art as well. That makes three kinds of support in your picture. :)

    Your photo allows these railings to look like art. I really like it.

      Thanks, Sabra. I tried to give a sense of going down the stairs.
